    Find first numerical value in the column

    Good evening, as the title would need to find in the first column P numerical value not text.
    I used:
    = MIN (P3: P100) and gives me the result.
    But, If the values are not in order. what other formula used ?.
    Thank you

    Here's another one...

    Array entered**:

    =INDEX(P3:P100,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(P3:P100),0))

    ** array formulas need to be entered using the key
    combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER).
    Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT key
    then hit ENTER.
