I have a bit of a tricky one. I have a range of data that i am using
to produce reports. One of these reports relates to column m. This
range has various dates in each cell. These dates are in the past and
future. What the reports needs to do is identify the first 3 dates in
the range that are over todays date and report how many times these
dates appear in the range, for instance

the range may include

feb 12
feb 20
mar 01
mar 01
april 01
april 01
april 10
may 05
may 05

the results would be mar01 = 2 april 01 = 2 april 10 =1

the reports ignores may 05 as its the fourth furthest date in the
future

hope someone can help as this has me stumpt

regards

John
