Default Automatic Date


Thanks guys.

-----Original Message-----
Michael,

Try this -

In A1 enter 1/1/00

in cell B1 enter =DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,DAY(A1))

drag the formula across as far as you want, e.g. to

December.

Then format all of these cells using - Format, Cells,

Number Tab, Custom,
Select "mmmm"

Hope that's what you're after

regards,

John

Hi all,

Is it possible to have a cell say "b1" read from a
cell "A1" and automatically change to the following

month.
So If say "A1" was January, I want "b1" to be february

but
I need it to be calcuated by a function. To date I have
just been adding 31 days to each cell in column a which
has worked. i.e "b1" formula reads = a1+31 etc... I am
using David McRichies "Insertandfillformulas" but for

some
reason it can't read column A this formula and things
aren't working !.

Thanks for your help

Regards,


Michael
