An excerpt from my data is below. I need to evaluate:

the account #. If it repeats in several rows I need to
Evaluate the case #. If it repeats in several rows I need to
Evaluate the status date and FLAG only the most recent (newest) date when the account # AND the Case # are repeated.
I can then do a data sort or pivot and delete the old statuses and dates I do not want to review.
