Hi everyone... I've been struggling with how to do the right formula here and would love if anyone could help.  I have a form which people are to fill out twice a month to do a temperature check on their progress.  The data will have the date, name, etc., then their "mood" (a dropdown list), and each entry will be a separate line which we also intend to use for trending.

With the end goal of putting this into a chart on a dashboard, I am trying to create a formula that will then give me their most recent "mood".  From what I have found, MAX(COLLECT) will be my best bet, but I'm not sure the syntax as I keep getting stuck at how to get the date info  I'm almost embarrassed to put my attempt at it, but here we go:

=INDEX({Data Range 2}, 1, 11, (MAX(COLLECT({Mood}, {Date}, ???}))))

Any help would be appreciated!  I'm stuck, and the only one in my office who creates in Smartsheet.  Thank you in advance!
