In Cell *A1* i have a date. Cell B1 says "=A1"

I run a macro and added +7 to make cell B1 read "=A1+7".

When I run the macro again nothing happens.

I need to be able to run a simple macro and be able to increase th
date by 1 week each time the macro is run.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Mat

correct me if I'm wrong but A1 hasn't changed. So if you keep setting B1 to
read "=A1+7" you're going to keep getting the same answer.

I think you need to change the increment: first time through, add 7; second
time through, add 14; and so on.

.....
x = 7
Range("B1").FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-1]+" & x
......

How can i make the macro run in increments?

Where does that formula x=7 range.... go?

Thx

Go into the VB IDE (Alt-F11)
Insert a new code module (InsertModule)
Add this code

Sub Add7()
If Range("B1").Value = "" Then
Range("B1").VAlue = Range("A1").Value
Else
Range("B1").Value= Range("B1").Value + 7
End If
Range("B1").Numberformat = "dd mmm yyyy"
End Sub

Then every time you want to increase it, run the Sub acelled Add7.

Matt,

Are both A1 and B1 formated for Dates?
If so in cell B1= A1+7 it should increase 1 week. However if the dat
in A1 stays the same then no matter how many time you run your macr
the date will alway be the same.

The date in A1 remains the same throughout.

I was hoping the Macro would create something as crude as

=a1+7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7+7" depending on the number of times I ran th
macro.

Is there another function I can use to acheive the desired result?

Thx for your input

Mat
