Date forumulas

I have a spreadsheet with a date in the first column the 2nd column date needs to be one year on from this and the 3rd column date 2 years on. Anyone know how to set this up?

RE: Date forumulas

Hello Su
Thank you for your question

Assuming the original date is in cell A1, try this formula in another cell and remember to format the column as date:

=DATE(YEAR(A1)+1,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))


If this resolves your question, please mark it as resolved. If not, please reply with more information.

Kind regards
Cress

Excel tip:

Hiding Formulae in the Formula Bar

It is possible to protect the contents of a cell reference(s) from amendment by applying cell protection. The contents of the cell reference can also be stopped from displaying in the formula bar.

Step 1: Select Format > Cells > Protection.

Step 2: Tick Hidden option. Ensure Locked is ticked

Step 3: Select Tools > Protection > Protect Sheet

(Ensure "Protect worksheet and contents of locked cells" is ticked)
