You mean that you have added it to the QAT.

What is that item called in the Customize list?

Thanks Bob, actually, I "played around" by clicking the Office button in
the
upper left, then "Excel options," then "customize." There's a check box in
there which let's you put a short cut in the upper left (the little box
where
"save" and "undo" and "redo" appear by default. So, I did that, pasted in
your formula with the appropriated day of the month. Then, I saved a copy
of
the worksheet, changed the date on the toolbar and tried it; it seems to
be
working, but we'll see what happens on January 7th! Thanks again.

I am setting up a financial statement and need to have a fee of a set
amount
added on the seventh of each month. I want the date of the seventh
to
add
3
to the value already present in one cell.





Thanks Bob, but I have the 2007 Office programs and didn't see the
excel
icon. the formula is a little over my head, but I get the idea, just
not
sure
how to appropriate it. I'll play with it!
