    Please attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is enough data to demonstrate your need. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary. Remember to remove ALL confidential information first!!!

    Re: Help with error #n/a when using dates as cell values

    Can you explain how you get the expected result from the data that you posted in your example? Also, what is the relationship/difference between the two columns labelled "A" and "B"? How is the date (23 July 2015) related to any of the dates in the table?

    Re: Help with error #n/a when using dates as cell values

    I need to return A or B after compare my two input in another sheet
    one of the input is date
    another input is name (p1100)
    so once match the values corresponding row heading A or B should return in this case name is unique not date

    Re: Help with error #n/a when using dates as cell values

    On the sheet you posted, the date was 23rd July. That date does not exist in the Table. Nor does it appear to be inside a date range in that Table. Please explain againhow 23rrd July and Part number matches anything!!

    No, I cannot - because you did not tell us what the answer was supposed to be in your first post. Please amend your attached spreadsheet so that it can be used to derive the answer that you need,
