I've tried a selection of formulas, mostly trying VLookups and IF statements to pull the information I need but I don't seem to be getting the result I want.

I'm trying do the following:
I want to pull the highlighted date in Table 2 (keeping in mind table 2 is on another sheet in my Workbook) into the Date column in Table 1 for A. I thought about specifying the text in column 2 of Table 2 in the formula?

Table 1
IDDate
A
B
C
D

<tbody>
</tbody>









Table 2
IDMonthDate
AJan1/01/2018
AFeb2/02/2018
AMar3/03/2018
AApr4/04/2018
AMay5/05/2018
BJan11/01/2018
BFeb12/02/2018
BMar13/03/2018
BApr14/04/2018
BMay15/05/2018

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
There is no conditional formatting formula I've just coloured the text red in this thread to highlight which field I want to pull into table 1

Hi,

You're Not telling us under what conditions to pull what information into the Date column in Table 1.

For instance, ID A has 5 entries in Table 2, why are you wanting the highlighted date of 3/03/2018?
