Default A better way to get Min and Max date

Alternatively, you could define a dynamic range and use that in the formulas.

Using Excel 2000. The below lines are on two rows, I'd like to have as a
few more rows so it's easier to read albeit the _ (space underscore)
doesn't like breaking the lines. Is this possible?

Also, I don't really like the [65000] in the code but I don't know any other
way to get the MIN and MAX dates from a range that charges frequently. The
below code places in a file then range values.

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=""Dates: ""&TEXT(MIN(R[3]C:R[65000]C),""dd"")&""
""&TEXT(MIN(R[3]C:R[65000]C),""mmm"")&""
""&TEXT(MIN(R[3]C:R[65000]C),""yyyy"")&"" to
""&TEXT(MAX(R[3]C:R[65000]C),""dd"")&""
""&TEXT(MAX(R[3]C:R[65000]C),""mmm"")&""
""&TEXT(MAX(R[3]C:R[65000]C),""yyyy"")"

Thanks, Rob
