Thank you for your help with this.
I have this array formula:
=INDEX(BFE!$R$2:$R$1385,MATCH(A3,OFFSET(BFE!$L$2,M ATCH(Sheet2!A3,BFE!$L$2:$L$1385,0)-1,6,-1,-1)))
and I get #N/A for the result. What I'm trying achieve is to match a part
number (A3 with BFE!L2:L1385) and then get the earliest date (R2:R1385) as
the result. The part number is listed many times with varying dates and I
need the soonest. Can this be done?

TIA
Joe
