Functions

Which is the best function if I want to find a period date (for example 6 months) based on a given date? So, if a have a date and then want to find the date which is 6 months from that.

RE: Functions

Hello Luciana,

Thank you for your question. There is a very useful function in Excel which can do this for you:

Say you have a date in cell A1, the function in cell B1 would be:

=EDATE(A1,6)

This will return a date exactly 6 months from the date in A1.

I hope this helps!

Kind regards

Excel tip:

Page Break Preview in Excel 2010 (Hint/tip)

If you select View then Workbook Views then Page Break Preview, you will be able to view how your Excel spreadsheet will be split across multiple pages when printed. Even better, you can also drag a page break to a new place. Excel will then scale down your entire worksheet to fit the information you want on the pages you want.
