ee14.xls

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
In the sheet &quot;monthly&quot; of the attached file I have entered a formula (column b, yellow colourred) that should get the data from the sheet &quot;wdme&quot; at the intersection of the cell values of B1 and An.<br />
<br />
An contains month-end-dates, but sheet &quot;wdme&quot; shows several working days of the respective month not necessarily including the last calendar day. <br />
<br />
For any reason, my formulas returns either an #N/A error or 0.0%... probably a stupid first school year error again, but I have been unable to find out...<br />
<br />
I would be grateful for an amended formula that avoids the error and just gathers the value from the latest/highest day / last that appears in row 1 of sheet wdme of the respective month.<br />
<br />
Thanks.
