Formula Question

Hello I need some help with a formula. I need to create a formula field on the case object that shows the date a child object record was last created. I kind of have an idea of where to start, but I'm not sure if it's possible. Any idea?

Okay here' what you need to do, make the relationship between the Case and CO a master-Detail relationship.  Then on the Case object create a Rollup Summary field (RS) that returns the MAX(Date) of the CO

What is the relationship between the Case and the Child Object?  Is it a Custom Object or a standard object?

Thank you for the response. The child is a custom object.

Thanks for your help. It worked perfectly, I was definitely thinking it would be more complex than that.
