Hi, I have this data:
UserID Date
1 03.22.2019
1 03.22.2018
2 03.22.2019
3 05.22.2018
3 05.22.2019

I would like to go through it using and select the user with the most recent occurrence.
I am using 2 worksheets. sheets(1) has the name of the user and I try to find the name in sheet(2) using "For each cell in sheet(1) in a range in sheet(2)". My problem is when the match happens. I want it to look at column B where the date is and pick the userID with the latest date.
Assume user ID is in sheet(1) column A. User ID is in sheet(2) Column A and Date is in Sheet(2) column B.
Please help as I am not sure how to do this in the most efficient way.
Here's my starter code:

For Each C in Rng
with Sheet(2).Cells
Set B = .FInd(C, LookIn:= xlValues, Lookat:= xlWhole)
If Not B Is Nothing Then
'Find the User ID. If there are multiple occurrences for userID. Find the one with the most recent date'
End IF
End With
Next
