Default a cell to display number of days in a month given in another cell

Hi everybody,

I know I may be asking a basic question, but the problem is driving
me nuts. I have month typed in one cell and I want to call the number
of days in another specific cell. How do I do that??

Regards

If, as you say, you have typed the month's name in a cell, say is F4, you
can have the number of days of the month in another cell in which you type
this formula:

=DAY(DATE(YEAR(VALUE("1/"&F4&"/"&YEAR(TODAY()))),MONTH(VALUE("1/"&F4&"/"&YEAR(TODAY())))+1,0))

You have to format as General or as Number the cell in which you insert the
formula.

translating from the Italian version of Excel...)

Hope I helped you.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.
