    mode backwards?

    column b contains dates - sorted from oldest to newest. I am wanting to find most occuring date. I using mode(B:B) this does work / and doesnt. For example: in b:b I have 1/7 listed twice I also have 1/18 listed twice. In my case I want the LATEST date shown. Currently its just shows 1/7 because its the first occurrence

    Any ideas?

    using =INDEX(MODE.MULT(B2:B71),3) does give me the desired results for now, just dont know if this is best way to continue...Please advise.

    Try

    =MAX(MODE.MULT($B$2:$B$71))

    Re: mode backwards?

    Thanks John...Used it, but it took me back to 1/7. I need it to bring in the LAST(max?) mode point - in this case that would be 1/18? Any ideas?
