Default Need to convert years into days

This seems like it should be pretty basic, but i can't seem to figure
it out.
I need to convert data in row c: (Age in years) to Age in days (in row
I)
For example, if the patient is 1 years old, I need to convert 1 in row
C to 365 in row I.
Thanks!
Kim

If you don't care about leap years, then are you using the simple formula of (1*365)? obviously you would substitute a cell
reference in place of the 1 so it would accomodate any number. If you want to be more accurate, you will need the birth date and
current date =TODAY(), or whatever date you want to use as your cutoff date for purposes of calculation.

If you have the Date of Birth somewhere on your s/s you could use
=NOW()-CellRef
That will return as a numeric value based on todays date minus the date of
birth

In Cell I1, type =C1*365.
Is this what you want?
You input in C1 is 1, right?

Yup, that is what I want; but what I need is an easy way to reference
7842 rows of data. I was wondering if there was a formula that took the
values of row C and multiplied them by 365 without me manually changing
the formula for each row of data.

Thanks

yeah, in the first just type =a1*365 then copy it down, or select all the
formula cells and type =A1*365 and Ctrl-Enter rather than just Enter.
