I'm doing a date calculation where by 1 is January 1900, 2 is February 1900,
.... 1281 is September 2006. I want to extract the month from the number. The following works - but is there a better way (where I don't have to use an IF)? =IF(MOD(H3,12)<0,MOD(H3,12),12) |

=Month(1/1/1900) would extract 1 from 1/1/1900, etc.

Try:
=MOD(H3-1,12)+1 "Brad" wrote: I'm doing a date calculation where by 1 is January 1900, 2 is February 1900, ... 1281 is September 2006. I want to extract the month from the number. The following works - but is there a better way (where I don't have to use an IF)? =IF(MOD(H3,12)<0,MOD(H3,12),12) |
