MIN

Returns the minimum value among the values displayed in the rows of the table control. The function accepts values only from textbox, label and literal controls.  This function is called as <TableControlName>.MIN("<ControlName>"). Use a TableControl instance to indicate which TableControl contains the values to be operated on by the function, e.g., Order_DetailsTableControl, ProductsTableControl, and CategoriesTableControl.

Please note that the minimum value returned in the value from the rows currently displayed.  This is not the minimum value for all values currently in the database.  So if only ten rows are displayed within the table control out of a million rows in the database, the MIN function will return the minimum of the ten displayed on the web page.

Syntax

= <TableControlName>.MIN(controlName)

Parameters
