Can anyone suggest a formula to return the earliest and latest date within a child column?
for the earliest date range you can use = MIN ([xx] 1 : [xxx] 19.

I believe using the word LARGE instead of MIN will give the most recent date.
Hope this helps.

=MAX(CHILDREN([Date Column Name]@row))
If you are putting the formula in the same column as the children you are referencing, then you wouldn't even have to specify a cell.
=MIN(CHILDREN())
=MAX(CHILDREN())
That worked, thanks!
Happy to help.

Is there a way to only share access to users to ONLY specific…
