Can DMIN return multiple values

[turtle]

I need to write an update query that will return the earliest date to a
table based on the data of a different table.
I have a labor table that looks like this

TableLabor
JobCode WorkORder Sequence Date Hrs LinkedField
A B100 4000 3/1/04 5 AB1004000
A B100 4000 2/1/04 8 AB1004000
B A100 2000 3/3/04 10 BA1002000
etc...

In my other table i need to show for each instance of Jobcode,
Workorder and sequence the earliest date.

TableBaseline
Jobcode Workorder Sequence Date LinkField
A B100 4000 2/1/04 AB1004000

Basically i need an update query to take the earliest date from
TableLabor and input it into the Date field of the TableBaseline field.

I created a query for each table with a linked field that contains
JobCode, Workorder and Sequence (is that right?) so the link field
would be AB1004000 and so on... I then used a query based on the
TableBaseline table and used the following function to update my
table...
dmin("[date]","tablelabor","[linkedfield]=[linkedfield]")
But it doesnt work...HELP please

Maybe use a totals query and get the Min of the date.
