Set whole column with function
 
Hopefully very basic question...just can't seem to figure it out.

How do I set whole column to be +20 of another column. For example - value
of A1= 1/2/2007 then C1 = 1/22/2007
A3=5/5/2006 then C1=5/25/2007

Thank you!

Thanks but thats not what I was looking for.

I want to set the whole column to do this. I don't want to have to type
A1+20, A2+20, A3+20..etc all the way down the whole C column. There must be
a way to set the whole column up at once.

In B1: =A1+20
Drag the Fill Handle to copy down as far as required

Copy column A to column C.

Type 20 in an unused cell.

Copy that cell.

Select column C range of dates and EditPaste SpecialAddOKEsc.

Re-format to date.
