Adding a date to calender to automatially generate another date?
Hi Crystal
Excel stores its date values internally as a numeric value. Hence, to generate a future date from any given date, you can in the simplest instance just add a number of days. With cell A1 containing 01 Jan 2006 B1 =A1+1 will give 02 Jan 2006, =A1+10 will give 11 Jan 2006 =DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,1) will give the result 01 Feb 2006 =DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+2,1) will give 01 Mar 2006 Note the general format of =DATE(year,month,day) =DATE(2006,4,1) will give 01 Apr 2006 Using 0 as the day value, will give th last day of the previous month so =DATE(2006,4,0) will give 31 Mar 2006 I hope this information will get you dtarted. -- Regards Roger Govier Crystal Long <Crystal wrote How do you add a date into an Excel calender and have it automatically generate a later date in the calender year automatically. |
