Display value in same row of most recent date in a different column

[MPSingley]

A B C D
1 3/30/1994 C - 0
2 4/1/1995 C - 0
3 4/15/2003 H - 0
4 5/6/2003 C - 0

I need to Display the value in column B and D corresponding to the row
with the most recent date.
I realize this seems rather easy, but for the life of me I can't figure
this one out.
Thank you for any help.

=IF(A1=MAX(A:A),A1,"")

and copy down.

One way, assuming dates in col A are real and unique ..

Return from col B for most recent date:
=INDEX(B:B,MATCH(LARGE(A:A,ROW(A1)),A:A,0))

Similarly, return from col D for most recent date:
=INDEX(D,MATCH(LARGE(A:A,ROW(A1)),A:A,0))

=VLOOKUP(MIN(A1:A7),A17,2,FALSE)&VLOOKUP(MIN(A1:A7),A17,4,FALSE)

Based on the OP's spec:

... corresponding to the row with the most recent date.

should the MIN be MAX instead ?
