    More info please...

    Where are the dates located (range-wise) ?

    Are the date time values listed in any sort of order ?

    Is the Current Date always listed ?

    Sorry,
    dates are in column S and there could be any number of rows.

    dates are in format dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm (all in one column) and they have not been soretd.

    The current date / time isn't listed, I just want to pull that from the system clock.

    Thanks
