    Return the next date from a list.

    I have a list of sports events and the dates of each. I want to return the date of the next event based on todays date. The dates are in column "D" and expands as a new season is added.

    Try this one
    Format cell where you enter this formula as Date

    =MIN(IF(D:D>TODAY(),D:D))

    ...confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer. Press F2 on that cell and try again.
