Thumbs up Answer: Recurring date formula

Creating a formula for recurring dates on the 3rd Wednesday of each month:
  1. Use the formula:
    Code:
    =DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+ROW(A1)-1,1+((3-WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+ROW(A1)-1,1),3)) mod 7)+14)
  2. YEAR(TODAY()) and MONTH(TODAY()) will return the current year and month respectively.
  3. ROW(A1)-1 will return the number of rows down from the first row in the column.
  4. The number 1 added to the current month will give us the first day of the next month.
  5. WEEKDAY(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+ROW(A1)-1,1),3) will return the day of the week for the first day of the next month, where 3 represents Wednesday.
  6. Subtracting the day of the week from 3 will give us the number of days we need to add to the first Wednesday of the month to get to the third Wednesday.
  7. Adding 14 to the result of the previous step will give us the date of the third Wednesday of the month.
  8. Copy the formula down a column to automatically adjust the month for each row.
