Default Date formula

Hi there,
I want to set up a formula so that when I enter a date in one cell the cell
with the formula gives me a date 4 days in advance.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Will

Default Date formula

Just add 4 to it

=A1+4

if you mean business days

=WORKDAY(A1,4,Holidays)


where Holidays can be a range with public holidays

Hi there,
That's great. Now do you have any idea how I can hide the values the formula
is generating when the original date cell is blank or zero?
Cheers,
Will
