Column A        Column B

31/1/2016          1000

Now I will be referring one of the date in this month on another sheet and I would like to pull Column B value corresponding to last date on each month. There wont be any value till last date on column B.

Any hint to do this ?

Answer 1

First step is to make the condition:

=IF(A1=EOMONTH(A1,0),B1,"")

Note: if date in A1 is really the end of its month, it takes result from B1

Second step is to combine it with Vlookup. I assume that you would input some date in column C:

=IF(C1=EOMONTH(A1,0),VLOOKUP(C1,$A$1:$B$1000,2,FALSE),"")

Third step is... you can change the formula if your input is in another sheet. For the example: the data are in "sheet1" and the date input are in column C at "sheet2" :

=IF(C1=EOMONTH(Sheet1!A1,0),VLOOKUP(C1,Sheet1!$A$1:$B$1000,2,FALSE),"")

Hope it'll help.
