    Formula to search the investment line and then place the date above

    I have built a spreadsheet that I want to be flexible based on date money received which then changes hiring. I would like the formula to search the investment line and then place the date above in a cell.. Can someone provide the best way to do it?

    Attach a sample workbook (not a picture or pasted copy). Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    The formula should be able to search row 2 for an amount and when located enter the date shown on row 1 directly above it into a cell. I have tried several things unsuccessfully.

    Thank you any and all for your assistance.

    Hello boiseguy and Welcome to Excel Forum.
    It would be easier to help if we knew the version of Excel that you are using, MS-Off Ver: in the profile. As the 2010 or newer versions are seen quite often here try the following:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    You're Welcome and thank you for the feedback. One way to learn what a formula is doing is to run the Evaluate Formula feature from the Formulas tab. Please take a moment to mark the thread as 'Solved' using the thread tools menu above your first post. I hope that you have a blessed day.
