Insert Cell Name of a value that matches a MAX function
If the cell that it is pointing to is null or blank
Then leave the cell that it is be inserted blank not with zeros or #NA. The format in the cell it is pointing to, is a date field.

Insert Cell Name of a value that matches a MAX function
Since you are using max that would only be a problem if all the cells
are empty in the linked cells? If that could be the case you could do the same and use =IF(linkcell="","",linkcell) or =IF(COUNT(Linked_cell_range),MAX(Project!E2:H2),"" ) format result as date -- For everyone's benefit keep the discussion in the newsgroup.
