Alan,

Sort the selection by the Date field, take the first Date, and then goto 
selected record (table;records in selection(table)), and get that Date.

This avoids loading much, except the date field sort.

Hth!

Subject: Min/Max for Date Fields in 4D

Greetings everyone,

Is there a way to get the earliest and latest dates from a selection of
records similar to using Min/Max for numerical data?

I have sorted the data and captured the first and last dates but this seems
rather a lot of work to get this info.

I believe that I have also used Selection To Array to capture the dates in
the array and then sorted the array.

Surely there is something I've overlooked?

Currently using v13.6.

Thanks,
Alan Tilson
