Latest timestamp value:

=Max( TimestampField)

or

=Timestamp(Max(TimestampField))

If you want to get the another related field value based on latest timestamp:

=FirstSortedValue( OtherField, -TimestampField)

note the minus sign before Timestampfield to get the latest.

Thanks for Reply Rudolf.timestamp(max(entered time stamp) works for Time Stamp.But I am trying to get latest text field value  based on latest time stamp also.FirstSortedvalue with Minus before Timestamp worked.
