Dates:

LOAD distinct created_date,Modified_Date

FROM table1;


concatenate(Dates)

LOAD distinct created_date,Modified_Date

FROM table2;


concatenate(Dates)

LOAD distinct created_date,Modified_Date

FROM table3;


concatenate(Dates)

LOAD distinct created_date ,Modified_Date

FROM table4;


concatenate(Dates)

LOAD distinct created_date ,Modified_Date

FROM table5;


MinMax:

LOAD min(created_date) as MinDate,

          max(Modified_Date) as MaxDate

Resident Dates;


let vMinDate = peek('MinDate',0,'MinMax');

let vMaxDate = peek('MaxDate',0,'MinMax');


drop table Dates;

maybe you can read from your field instead from your tables, an example of which can be found e.g. here:
