I need to determine mean, median, mode, min, max and rank for a set of data

these functions are limited to arrays of 255 numbers or less.

Is there a way I can calculate these statistics on sets of data numbering in
the thousands?

More data would be useful to try to figure out your problem, and why your Excel
is "locking up" (whatever that means)

=MIN(A:A)
=AVERAGE(A:A)
=MODE(A:A)

works fine with values in column A.

etc.
