Question

        MIN( DateDiff( NOW(), idx_com         


        

Answer 1

Use str_to_date to convert idx_common.list_date.

MIN( DateDiff( NOW(), str_to_date(idx_common.list_date,'%m/%d/%Y') ))) AS listage_min,
MAX( DateDiff( NOW(), str_to_date(idx_common.list_date,'%m/%d/%Y') ))) AS listage_max
