Hi,

I have the following (complex!!) formula to work out quarters from dates;

=IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(G2)/3,0)=1,"1st Quarter
"&YEAR(G2),IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(G2)/3,0)=2,"2nd Quarter
"&YEAR(G2),IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(G2)/3,0)=3,"3rd Quarter
"&YEAR(G2),IF(ROUNDUP(MONTH(G2)/3,0)=4,"4th Quarter "&YEAR(G2)))))

My question is - how can I change it so that Q1 begins on the 1 November
(the begining of my corps financial year), and not the begining of the
calender year (jan 01)?

Many thanks

RB
