=date(year(a1)-1,month(a1),day(a1))
It'll work for almost every date except the leapyear dates (Feb 29, 2008 won't give Feb 29, 2007). alvin Kuiper wrote: Hi Is there a way in a worksheet - Functions where i can take a cell value (date) and make it a year less like 01-11-2009 (danish date) shall be 01-11-2008 I can in VB, but can't find it in a waotksheet alvin -- Dave Peterson |

Hi Alvin,
Here's one that'll handle leap years: =MIN(DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)-{12,11},DAY(A1)*{1,0})) -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "alvin Kuiper" wrote in message ...
