    Thumbs up Fill Column with dates between two limits

    Hi,

    Not sure where to start.

    I've got dates formatted like:
    8/31/2018 (As text)

    I'd like to pick out the oldest and newest date in a column
    Then fill in a second column starting with the oldest and ending with the newest

    If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great. My VB is poor on a good day.

    For example:

    Input Output
    9/6/2018 8/31/2018
    9/2/2018 9/1/2018
    8/31/2018 9/2/2018
    9/3/2018
    9/4/2018
    9/5/2018
    9/6/2018

    Or, using formulae:

    Put this formula in B2:

    =MIN(A2:A4)

    and this in B3:

    =IF($B$2+ROWS($1:1)<=MAX($A$2:$A$4),$B$2+ROWS($1:1),"")

    Format those two cells as a date in the style you prefer, then copy B3 down as far as you need to (you'll get blanks if you copy too far).

    Hope this helps.

    Pete
