When I enter the formula =MONTH(TODAY()) and the cell formatting is set to
General, the cell contains a 1. When I change the cell formatting to Custom "mmm", the cell displays "Jan". So far, so good. When I enter the formula =MONTH(TODAY())+3 and the cell formatting is set to General, the cell contains a 4. I would assume that this is the correct formula for showing the month which is 3 months hence. When I change the formatting to Custom "mmm", I would expect the cell to contain "Apr", but it doesn't. It still displays "Jan". When I enter the formula =MONTH(TODAY()+45) and the cell formatting is set to General, the cell contains a 3. I would assume that this is the correct formula for showing the month which is 45 days hence. When I change the formatting to Custom "mmm", I would expect the cell to contain "Mar", but it doesn't. It still displays "Jan". I'm stumped. TIA, David |
