    Return date if two columns have the same date

    Hi there,

    I wanted to use the IFs formula to check if the between 2 out of 6 columns the date matches ( so if they show the same date).
    However I do not receive the date 30.01.2007 if I apply the formula even though columns CV and CY have the same date.
    Does someone know what I need to do to make it work?

    Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    Regards
    Philpi

    Please update your profile to show your curent Excel version. Clearly, you are no longer using Excel 2003 (.xlsx attachment).

    The problem is that CP103 & CS103 are blank there they equal each other & the formula returns CP103.
    You are obviously not using 2003 any more so please update your profile, depending on your version try
    =MODE(IF($CJ$4:$DB$4="Datum",CJ103:DB103))

    It may need CSE entry

    Dear Fluff,
    thnak you very much.
    Your solution worked right away for me.
    And I should have noticed that the reason I receive blank as a result is that 2 columns had a blank date
    I have O365 installed on my pc.
