Default IF formula to allow Feb 29th in a leap year

Hi Mike

Supposing the year is in cell A1, use the following formula:-
=IF(MOD(A1,4)=0,"leap year","Not leap")

If you want to check a date automatically, if that date belongs to a Leap
year or NOT, then try following formula.

=IF(MOD(YEAR(TODAY()),4)=0,"leap year","Not leap")

Let me know if it helps. Thanks.

I know the rule that a leap year has to be divisable by 400 or divisable by 4
& 100 but I can't figure out how to put it in a IF formaula. Can anyone help?
