    Help needed with a search formula

    Dear Forum,

    I'm trying to solve the following issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Last Update Latest Project
    01/07/2009 ENC
    02/07/2009 RX
    03/07/2009 X MUX
    01/07/2009 ENC
    02/07/2009 RX
    03/07/2009 X Rx
    01/07/2009 ENC
    02/07/2009 RX
    03/07/2009 X Enc


    Description:

    Three columns - Last Update, Latest and Project.
    I want the Latest column to automatically insert "X", against each of the latest project entry.

    I'm pretty sure I need to do this with an array formula. Which I would prefer instead of a macro.

    Cheers

    Try:

    =IF(A2=MAX(IF($C$2:$C$10=C2,$A$2:$A$10)),"X","")

    confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER and copied down
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
