Hello,
Crazy question....
I have a row full of different dates. I would like to create a formula to display in a separate cell, the earliest date from that row. Is there a way to do this?

I have a spreadsheet with on column showing several rows of dates.
I want to have a separate cell that will automatically show the earliest date from that selected row.

You can use min function

this give minimum date in range a1 to a10
=min(A1:a10)

Nothing is simple. It took me a considerable time to finally realized, my keyboard does not have an "any" key and that pressing space bar works just as fine as pressing that elusive "any" key
