I have a data table of dates, first names, surnames and salary. I need to be able to lookup the salary on or before a given date. I need to do this multiple times so do not want to use the Control Shift Enter array construct. Any suggestions for a single line formula that can deal with the data conditionality. An example table is below:

[TABLE="width: 348"]
<colgroup><col width="87" span="4" style="width: 65pt;"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 87"]Date[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 87"]FirstName[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 87"]Surname[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 87"]Salary[/TD]
[/TR]
