Let's see, in the question I answered, You said you had 16 cells with 4
dates. Now you show 21 cells
with 2 dates and say the solution offered isn't working?

In C2 put in the formula

=if(A2<A1,(Max(($A$2:$A$100=A2)*($B$2:$B$100)),"" )

Enter with ctrl+Shift+Enter.

Drag fill the formula down your column.

Adjust 100 to reflect the last row with data.

didn't explain it properly. Here are two lists and I want to get the
Max(MaxHits) for each of the grp of dates: so the max value for 7/5 aND
THE
mAX value for 7/12
Date MAXHits
