Hi Andrew,

As Bob has explained, the ' means that the value is a text value, not a
true date value. For some reason, don't ask me why, I entered the dates
as such in my working example which was not intended for you. :)
Ignore that and enter your dates in the proper format. Then you'll be
able to do...

=A1+1

...and so on. Or, enter your starting date in A1, place your cursor
over the lower right corner, the cursor will change, click and drag
down.

Hope this helps!
