Date fomula not working
Did you try this formula (which I posted earlier)?
=A2-365-(DAY(A2)<DAY(A2-365)) I cannot find a way to not make it work, although you may want to use the formula set up this way... =IF(A2="","",A2-365-(DAY(A2)<DAY(A2-365))) so that it won't error out for empty cells (if you decide to copy it down in anticipation of future date entries). Give it a try. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "FangYR" wrote in message ... I am back again. Thanks to all of you. I tried according to all your advices but it did'nt work as it did before, even when trying on in older worksheets which worked fine, then. I thing somthing "add-ons" sre missing. Let me try on that, then come back to you all. Thanks again -- Regards FangYR Malaysia "Fred Smith" wrote: Good one, Rick. Regards, Fred. "Rick Rothstein" wrote in message ... I'm pretty sure this simpler (than the original) non-ATP formula will also work... =A2-365-(DAY(A2)<DAY(A2-365)) -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Shane Devenshire" wrote in message ... Hi, The function is calculating the date one year prior with and adjustment for leap years. It works as written. However you might consider using the following which does exactly the same thing: =EDATE(A2,-12) In Excel 2003 or earlier you will need to attach the ATP - Tools, Add-Ins, and check Analysis ToolPak. In 2007 nothing to do. -- If this helps, please click the Yes button Cheers, Shane Devenshire "FangYR" wrote: I have use this last year, it's fine until now. the formula is now new to Ron, =DATE(YEAR(A2)-1,MONTH(A2),DAY(A2))-(MONTH(DATE(YEAR(A2)-1,MONTH(A2),DAY(A2)))<MONTH(A2)) That is, I enter a month and day in A2 and it will appear as last year's date, but now nothing changes, still in default year 2009. Please advise. -- Regards FangYR Malaysia |
