Define not working. Did it return the wrong value? Did it return null? did you get a syntax error? Did it reformat your harddrive? Maybe it took your dog for a walk?
Nobody can see over your shoulder.

MAX works just fine on a datetime data type.
SELECT MAX(<Datetime column>) FROM <whereever>
Whatever the problem is, it is not that max does not work on datetimes.
If I had to guess, it's a varchar column not a datetime. Convert to datetime first, then max.

Really? Try running this code:
WITH TestData(dates) AS (
SELECT
CAST('20120416 09:12:30.000' AS DATETIME)
UNION ALL
SELECT
CAST('20120416 09:05:30.000' AS DATETIME)
UNION ALL
SELECT
CAST('20120416 09:14:33.000' AS DATETIME)
UNION ALL
SELECT
CAST('20120416 09:06:27.000' AS DATETIME)
)
SELECT
MAX(dates)
FROM
TestData;
It seems to select the max date from the list provided. Since we can't see what you are doing, however, there really is no way to help you unless you take the time to provide us with the information we need to really be able to help you. Can't say this enough obviously, help us help you.

How are we supposed to help? You won't give us anything to work with to help you. You have been told so many times what we need from you that it is starting to sound like a broken record.
If you want our help, give us what we need to help you. DDL for the table(s), sample data for the table(s), expected results based on the sample data, and the code you have written so far to solve your problem so we can see what you have tried so far.
Really, we can't see what you are doing at your place of work. We don't have access to your systems to look at the data structures or the data. We can't read your mind either. You have to help us help you.

Absolutely no idea. I see no decernable pattern in the values so you will need to provide the formula that generates the value pairs you provided.

How about a simple explanation about what you want??? What is a cumulative? Do you have a column with that information in it? I hope your communication skills in real life are better than you can do online.
From what you posted it looks like maybe you want the value in the cumulative column? Assuming you have another column that you can use to sort by you could use top 1 order by some column. If it is calculated some business rules would go a long way towards an answer.
