Show date range above report in text field

Hi community,

I have been searching for this (probably easy) a long time, but didn't find it. What I need is the code to place in a Text Object (or above graphs for example).

Now the catch is this: I have a date range. So I could say: Min and Max but when I make a selection in the graph it should automatically adjust the range to correspond with the date range from the selection.

So without a selection it is all fine:

But when I make a selection from within the graph still the same values apprear: (although the selection now is 12/16 - 1/22

Hope someone can give me the code that I need to use to have the default and when a selection is made, it follows the min max from the selection.

Thanking you in advance!

I think this in a text box should work:

Date(Min(DateField), 'D-M-YYYY') & ' to ' & Date(Max(DateField), 'D-M-YYYY')

When you select a subset of data, the dates will adjust.

UPDATE: You might want to add the same set analysis you have for your charts within the Min & Max function so that the text box object behave exactly like your chart.
