Default EDate function + #NAME? error

The error returned is #NAME? in the cell. And no, I copied the formula
exactly as the user has it in her ss.

Your formula returns a #REF! error!

Did you mean:

=EDATE(D12,J12*12)

If you had a look at EDATE in Excel help you would see that the Analysis
Toolpak
add-in must be loaded through ToolsAdd-ins.

Hi all,

I have a user with Excel 2000 experiencing a problem with her EDATE
function. Presently, she has her formula set to EDATE(+D12(J12*12)). Her
cells are formated with a custom date format. She does have the add-in
installed. She only seems to get the #NAME? error at the beginning of a
new
year. She used to have her calculations on automatic, but for now they are
on
manual. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks!
