Need Minimum excluding blank cells
Office XP Professional
I have a range of cells, some may be empty - others will not. I need to find the minimum value for the populated cells. How do I exclude the empty cells in my formula? Thanks in advance for any help! Rita Brasher Project Engineer / IPEG Int'l MIS and Training FedEx Express |

Empty cells are excluded of the MIN function.

Need Minimum excluding blank cells
Ok the problem is my cells are formatted as text, so the MIN and MAX
funstions will not work. Any ideas on how to get "2008-10-10 08:15:54" to be recognized as a date/time field?

Try selecting the range
change all the hyphens to hyphens (or colons to colons). Rita Brasher wrote: Ok the problem is my cells are formatted as text, so the MIN and MAX funstions will not work.

Hi,
Are the double quotes in the cell or something you added when posting? Mike "Rita Brasher" wrote: Ok the problem is my cells are formatted as text, so the MIN and MAX funstions will not work.
