Highest Date based on a number of criteria
Hi all,
Say I sell ice creams from different stores and want to know the most recent date a sale was made from a specified store and flavour. Flavour Store Date Chocolate A 1/09/2009 Chocolate B 1/09/2009 Vanilla A 1/09/2009 Vanilla A 2/09/2009 Eg, If Flavour = Vanilla, If Store = A, what is the most recent date a sale was made. I wish this to be a formula. Any suggestions? Thanks. |
