If both A1 and B10 are in date formats try this formula. Change the values
you want accordingly//In the below example if both months are same it will
return 1 and if not 2. Adjust as required.

=IF(Month(A1)=Month(B10),1,2)

the month and year is A1 . I was a formula to say if A1 equal to B10 1( in
this case if A1 and B10 are the same month it should be 1 or less.

I am sure there is a way. What kind of information is in A1? Is it a date
or just the year? Is B10 always going to be the cell you compare too? And
what do you want to do if the A1<B10?
