ktaylor wanted a formula method for finding the oldest (lowest) date out of a list of dates in a column.

Egad suggested the following solution providing the date range was in cells A1:A30

=SMALL(A1:A30,1) will return the smallest (oldest) date or number.
=SMALL(A1:A30,2) will find the second smallest�.and so on

Epidemic suggested using one of the MIN MAX and MEDIAN functions.

An example would be

=MIN(A1:A30)
