SUMPRODUCT: Help to use this to find min date in range for cr
Hello Peo,
Thanks for the information. I tried the formulas below, but couldn't get it work in all cases. Had a problem with this one: Dates: 11/08 12/08 1/09 2/09 3/09 4/09 5/09 06/09 Values: 7 9 5 6 3 4 10 11 Returns Min = 11/08 and Max = 3/09 "Peo Sjoblom" wrote: For max =INDEX(A1:E1,MATCH(MAX(A2:E2),A2:E2,0)) for min =INDEX(A1:E1,MATCH(MIN(A2:E2),A2:E2,0)) where I assume the dates are in A1:E1 and the values in A2:E2 -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Blueglass" wrote in message ... Hello Peo, I'm working with the formula below, but can't figure it out. I've got a row of dates and values: 10/07 11/07 12/07 01/08 02/08 20 20 And would like to test the second row for the existence of data and return the Max date in one column and the Min dates in another column. Is that possible? Thank you. "Peo Sjoblom" wrote: Well that formula is not needed and it doesn't make any sense. You seem to want 2 criteria, no blank dates since they would be dates over 100 years ago and a criteria in another range, =MIN(IF(Range1="x",IF(Date_Range"",Date_Range))) will return the earliest date where Range1 equals x, adapt to fit your requirements and this time enter the formula with ctrl + shift & enter and finally make sure the cell with this formula is formatted as date or you will get the serial number -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Gwynneth" wrote in message ... Hi Bernard and thank you for responding. I found a formula yesterday which enabled me to find the latest/max date within a range and subject to a criteria. This formula was: =sumproduct(MAX(--(A:A=A1)*B:B)). So I thought I could use this to find the first date/min. However, because there are blanks agains some criteria these are picked up as the minimum values. I am therefore hoping there is something I can do the the sumproduct formula above that will skip the blanks and give the the first date against a specifed criteria with multiple dates. If this is not enough info. I will send you an example spreadsheet if that pos. Thanks again -- Gwynneth "Bernard Liengme" wrote: This finds the minimum value in the A range subject to the corresponding B value being "a". But if there are two cases you get twice the answer. =SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A16=MIN(A1:A16)),--(B1:B16="a")) Can you please expand on your problem. You want to find the minimum value of PO1 with the proviso that the date in also in the range Created1? With named ranges we cannot see the whole picture. For example what is the size of each range? best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Gwynneth" wrote in message news I am trying to find the minimum date in a range, which contains blanks. subject to a criteria.

Works fine for me when I test it using your example, you might have text is
some of the values and your dates are very ambiguous Excel can only accept dates that includes year, month and day if you omit one it will put whatever it considers a date so if you type in 05/09 today Excel will guess that you are trying to type 05/09/2007 even though you did not mean that Anyway I just tested it and using my formula and the dates in your example it returned 12/08 for MAX and 03/09 for MIN -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Blueglass" wrote in message news Hello Peo, Thanks for the information.

OK, I see what's happening. You're formula tests for max and min values and
returns the associated date. What I really need is to find the first value in the range and return that date and the last value in the range and return that date. When dealing with hours, I'll have the start date of the work and the end date of the work. Can we do that?
