If date is in the month of Sept, then "1", otherwise "2"
 

cell a1 = the date

a1 could equal 9/15/2007, 8/20/2007, 9/26/2007, 5/30/2006, etc.

formula please?:

if the date in cell a1 falls in the month of september, then "1", otherwise
"2"

thanks very much!

If date is in the month of Sept, then "1", otherwise "2"
 

Try this
=1+(MONTH(A1)<9)

Does that help?

That does help, thanks.

I've modified it to this: =IF(MONTH(N10)=A5,N20,M20)

So if the month in cell n10 equals today's month (in cell a5), then use the
data in cell n20, otherwise use next month's data which is in cell m20.

I will probably have a bunch of nested Ifs where M20 is, becuase I have to
reference a few date ranges.

Thanks very much Ron!

for some reason the month function doesn't seem to work between links of
separate worksheets.

I changed the formula to this:

=IF(EOMONTH(Monthly!N10,0)=EOMONTH(A5,0),Monthly!N 20,IF(EOMONTH(Monthly!M10,0)=EOMONTH(A5,0),Monthly !M20,"xxx"))

and it works now, but if you know of a better way, I'd like to hear.

Thanks again.

The MONTH function doesn't care which sheet it's referring to.

Anyway, perhaps one of these variations:

=IF(MONTH(Monthly!N10)=MONTH(Sheet1!A5),Monthly!N2 0,IF(MONTH(Monthly!M10)=MONTH(Sheet1!A5),Monthly!M 20,"xxx"))

or

=CHOOSE(SUMPRODUCT((MONTH(Monthly!M10:N10)=MONTH(A 5))*{1,2})+1,"xxx",Monthly!M20,Monthly!N20)

or...

=CHOOSE(SUMPRODUCT((TEXT(Monthly!M10:N10,"yyyymm") =TEXT(A5,"yyyymm"))*{1,2})+1,"xxx",Monthly!M20,Mon thly!N20)

Note: in case text wrap impacts the display, there are NO spaces in those
formulas.

Does that help?
