Hello to All,

I have a large spreadsheet that I need to condense down. Each record on the
spreadsheet is an item and in the first column there is an item number and in
Column N there is a the date the item was ordered. The items repeat for
every time they were ordered. So if an item was ordered 500 times there will
be 500 records for that item with dates, and the dates could repeat if the
item was ordered multiple times in the same day. I've looked around and
haven't quite found what I need. I am hoping there is a way to automate this
as the people who use this aren't so computer savvy.

I hope I'm being clear, but I'll say it again. Column A has the item number
and they can repeat, I need to count how many times an item is ordered (for
each item on the spreadsheet, there could be hundreds of different items) and
then take the latest date that the item was ordered.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
