Find the most frequent date

[MarkN]

Hello,

I have a list where column A is numbers. Each number occurs many times in
the list. Column B contains dates corresponding to the number in column A.

20 1/1/01
20 1/1/01
20 3/5/04

Once the list is sorted by number, I need to find that number's most
frequently occurring date. In the example above, number 20 would return
1/1/01.

I have solved the above problem.

translating from the Italian version of Excel...)

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hi Franz,

I used an array function =MAX(IF($A$2:$A$11=F2,B$2:B$11)) where A2:A11
contains the number to find, F2 is the number to find and B2:B11 contains the
'max' date. I am sure that there are other ways but it works...
