I have a cell A1 with a drop down to select month. In another cell on
another sheet I want to compare the current month to the value in A1. If (current month = A1, value, value) I've found a lot of date functions but the solution evades me. Can someone please help me? All I really need is how to get the month to use to compare I think I have the rest of the formla figured out. TIA gls858 |

I'm not sure what you're really using -- dates or the month names?
I'm guessing names like January, February, ..., December. =if(text(today(),"mmmm")=A1,"same name","not same name") If you used abbreviations: Jan, Feb, ..., Dec =if(text(today(),"mmm")=A1,"same name","not same name") gls858 wrote: I have a cell A1 with a drop down to select month.
