How to get the row number of the most recent date in the date column of a data table?

I want to get  the row number of the most recent date in the date column of a data table? 

 

Trying the following for the Date column in my data table

colmax(Data Table( "myData" ):Date);

gives me a number which is much greater than the number of rows in my data table so not making sense. Any direction would be useful. 

When it's too good to be true, it's neither

Re: How to get the row number of the most recent date in the date column of a data table?

dt << get rows where (:date == col Maximum(:date))

 

Just Col Max  gives you the max date (in seconds). Then compare the max with the individual values to find the matches.
