    retrieve the latest date from list of records

    Good Morning,

    I have a sheet recording the number of times each attendee shows up for training. I need to extract or highlight the last day which each participant attended training. There is a 90 day rule that each participant must show up onec every 90 days. i have no precise method of retrival or recording eg list filter pivottable (which i attempted)

    at your mercy

    Many thanks

    Hello, not knowing your data layout, I made some assumptions:

    List of names in column A, list of dates in column B

    =IF(MAX(IF($A$2:$A$10=A2,$B$2:$B$10,0))=B2,"last attendance for "&A2,"")

    entered with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER because it is an array formula. You can use TRUE or FALSE instead and then use that for conditional formatting to highlight the actual date.
