    VLOOKUP with duplicates

    I am dealing with a vlookup formula to return "comments" into my table. it looks something like this:

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    However, There are duplicate values for Column A and the value that I want returned from column 2 is the latest (dated) entry from column C. For example, The table would be like this:

    Job No. Comment Logged Date
    XXX222 start 05/01/2015 12:27:53 PM
    XXX222 WIP 05/19/2015 01:28:12 PM
    XXX222 Finished 05/19/2015 01:56:19 PM



    How can I work around this so it captures the newest comment?

    Re: VLOOKUP with duplicates

    Can you post a SMALL sample file and show us what result you expect?

    A SMALL file will have about 20 rows worth of data.
