Hey guys,

I'm new to the VBA code thing...still in the record macro stage!!
I need assistance.

I have a worksheet that contains 6 columns,
A: Section
B: Machine
C: Component
D: Severity
E: Comment
F: Date.

Now I need a VBA code to filter by the latest date.:confused::confused:

Try this.

Code: 
Sub FilterMaxDate()
Dim R As Range: Set R = Range("A1").CurrentRegion
Dim MaxDate As Date: MaxDate = Application.Max(R.Columns(R.Columns.Count))


R.AutoFilter Field:=6, Criteria1:=MaxDate
End Sub

HI Irobbo314,

Thanx for the code. how ever I tried it but it keeps on giving me the date in the first row. You will see I edited the code..

Sub FilterMaxDate()
Dim R As Range: Set R = Range("F:F").CurrentRegion
Dim MaxDate As Date: MaxDate = Application.Max(R.Columns(R.Columns.Count))


R.AutoFilter Field:=6, Criteria1:=MaxDate
End Sub

And the other problem I have is that there is a lot of data on the machine that has the same date.
Here is a sample of what I have.

Assuming the dates are in column F :
Code: 
Dim myDate As Date: myDate = Application.Max(Columns(6))
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
Columns(6).AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=" & Format(myDate, [F2].NumberFormat)
