the date entered by the user is a question used to determine whether the
funds are available on any given year. For instance if A1 is year 2000, and
B1 is "every three years", a user may want to know whether the funds will be
availabe in 2005 (entered in C1). In this case, Excel would answer "No",
since the money is only avaible every three years (2003, 2006, 2009, 2012,
etc). I guess I could nest a bunch of "or" statements to go out 20 years or
so, but I was hoping to do it a better way.

If the lockup periods recur for eternity, what relevance does the date
in C1 have to funding?

i may not have been specific enough. the lockup periods are recurring for
eternity (theoretically of course). for example, for the two year. i need
{T,T+2,T+4,T+6,...}

If I understand you correctly:

D1: =IF(C1<=DATE(YEAR(A1)+B1,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1)),"Funde d","Under-funded")

i have a cell that contains a date (A1). this date forms the basis of a
lockup period that can be 2 years, 3 years, or 5 years (entered in B1).
the
user will enter a date in the future (in cell C1), and a formula (in D1)
needs to be able to determine whether the funds are available. any help
on
the formula would be highly appreciated. thanks!
