extract year from the date in a cell
I have a cell with 01/01/2006 in it, and I'm trying to extract the 2006 but when I put =Left(b9,4) it returns 8718. I'm also trying to pull the 2006 and put spaces in between it like so 2 0 0 6 Does anyone know how to do these two things? -- DKY ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DKY's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=14515 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=523216 |

extract year from the date in a cell
Excel stores dates as numbers, today is 38792, tomorrow is 38793 etc. so if you have today's date in B9 and use =left(B9,4) it will give you "8792". to get the year in another cell either use =TEXT(B9,"yyyy") for a text result or =YEAR(B9) for a numeric result or =B9 and format as "yyyy" for the spaces try =TEXT(YEAR(B9),"0 0 0 0")") -- daddylonglegs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ daddylonglegs's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30486 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=523216 |
