In our last challenge, I presented a rare date problem. Sometimes, when you copy a sheet to a new workbook, Excel changes the date. It isn't a bug; you're dealing with two different date systems.By default, Excel workbooks use the 1900 date system. The first supported day is January 1, 1900. When you enter a date value, Excel converts that date into a serial number that represents the number of elapsed days since January 1, 1900. It's my understanding that this system was originally adopted to be compatible with Lotus 1-2-3.In contrast, the first day supported in the 1904 system is January 1, 1904.
When you enter a date, Excel converts it into a serial number that represents the number of elapsed days since January 1, 1904. This gets into the leap year issue that TechRepublic member Paul mentioned.The difference between the two systems, and consequently, their serial numbers is 1,462 days. 1900 serial numbers are always 1,462 days larger than the 1904 system's.Each workbook can support either date (but not both at the same date). To set the system, do the following. When you copy data between two workbooks that use different systems, you'll run into shifting dates.
The easiest way to adjust the dates is to use the option to add or subtract 1,462 to each date:. Add 1,462 to shift dates up four years and one day. Subtract 1,462 to shift dates down four years and one day.In my experience, these mysterious shifting dates seem to show up when working with legacy applications. It's seldom an issue with new ones. Congratulations to Tron16 for being the first to identify the problem and thanks for another great challenge.
![]() Add Serial Number In Excel
When it comes to calculating dates in Excel, DATE is the most essential function to understand. As you probably know, Excel does not keep the year, month and day for a date, nor does it explicitly store weekday information in a cell. Instead, Microsoft Excel and this is the main source of confusion.Not all Excel date functions can recognize dates entered as text values, therefore it's not recommended to supply dates directly in calculations. Instead, you should use the DATE function to get a serial number representing the date, the number that Excel understands and can operate on.Excel DATE function syntaxWhat the Excel DATE function does is return the serial number of a specified date. It has the following arguments.
DATE(year, month, day)Year - represents the year of the date. Excel interprets the year argument according to the date system set up on your computer. By default, Microsoft Excel for Windows uses the 1900 system. In this date system:. If year is between 1900 and 9999 inclusive, exactly that value is used for the year. For example, =DATE(2015, 12, 31) returns December 31, 2015.
If the year argument is between 0 and 1899 inclusive, Excel calculates the year by adding the specified number to 1900. For example, =DATE(100, 12, 31) returns December 31, 2000 (1900 + 100). If year is less than 0 or greater than 9999, a DATE formula will return the #NUM! To avoid confusion, always supply four digit years. For example, if you input '01' or '1' in the year argument, your DATE formula will return the year of 1901.Month - an integer representing the month of the year, from 1 (January) to 12 (December). If month is greater than 12, Excel adds that number to the first month in the specified year.
For example, =DATE(2015, 15, 5) returns the serial number representing March 1, 2016 (January 5, 2015 plus 15 months). If month is less than 1 (zero or negative value), Excel subtracts the magnitude of that number of months, plus 1, from the first month in the specified year. For example, =DATE(2015, -5, 1) returns the serial number representing July 1, 2014 (January 1, 2015 minus 6 months).Day - an integer corresponding to the day of the month, from 1 to 31.As well as month, the day argument can be supplied as a positive and negative number, and Excel calculates its value based on the same principles as described above.
At first sight, supplying negative values in the month or day argument of the Excel DATE function may seem absurd, but in practice it may turn out quite useful, for example in the complex formula that.The DATE function is available in all versions of Excel 2013, Excel 2010, Excel 2007, 2003, XP, 2000 as well as in Excel 2016. Excel DATE formula examplesBelow you will find a few examples of using DATE formulas in Excel beginning with the simplest ones. A simple DATE formula to return a serial number for a dateThis is the most obvious use of the DATE function in Excel:=DATE(2015, 5, 20) - returns a serial number corresponding to 20-May-2015.Instead of specifying the values representing the year, month and day directly in a date formula, you can get some or all arguments as results of other Excel date functions:=DATE(YEAR(TODAY), 1, 1) - returns the serial number for the first day of the current year.=DATE(YEAR(TODAY), MONTH(TODAY, 1) - returns the serial number for the first day of the current month in the current year.Example 2. Excel DATE formula to return a date based on values in other cellsThe DATE function is very helpful for calculating dates where the year, month, and day values are stored in other cells. For example:=DATE(A2, A3, A4) - returns the serial number for the date, taking the values in cells A2, A3 and A4 as the year, month and day arguments, respectively.Example 3. DATE formula to convert a text string to a dateAnother scenario when the Excel DATE function proves useful is when the dates are stored in the format that Microsoft Excel does not recognize, for instance DDMMYYYY. In this case, you can use DATE in liaison with other functions to convert a date stored as a text string into a serial number representing the date:=DATE(RIGHT(A2,4), MID(A2,3,2), LEFT(A2,2))Example 4.
Adding and subtracting dates in ExcelAs already mentioned, Microsoft Excel stores dates as serial numbers and operates on those numbers in formulas and calculations. That is why when you want to add or subtract some days to/from a given date, you need to convert that date to a serial number first by using the Excel DATE function. For the past year I have been using a formula to keep track of when my patients are due for their next visit. For example, if I visited today and they are due again in 4 weeks, I would plug in today's date and the formula gave me a date 28 days from today. The formula I was using was =SUM(column and row of today's date,number of days to next visit). So it might look something like this: =SUM(C3,28). That was working well up until a few weeks ago when all of a sudden, the projected date was coming up as a series of pound signs (#########).
Has something changed with Excel? Hello,Since a week i am struggling with an Increment formula,Im using formula which shows as=IF(AA2=0,0,(F2).VLOOKUP($AE2,ML!$F$26:$G$29,2,0))Here: AA2 is the End of Contract dateF2 is the Basic SalaryVlookup is the range of Category(Doctor,Admin,Nurses,Paramedical staff) which define the percentage in Increment.Right now i have months in different coloumni want this formula to show only for those people whose dates will reflect on the End of Contract months.for me this formula is effecting in all the months.Thanks in Advance. Hi,I had prepared a Attendance Sheet which is auto populated with P (present) till present date and A (Absent) if entered manually in another sheet named 'Absent' with the following formula: =IF(E$2TODAY,',IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A4&'-'&E$2,Absent!$A:$E,5,0),'P')))).My query is What is the formula for making a series of A (Absent) if one of an employee is absent from a given start date to given End date in sheet 'Absent'. Also what is the integrated formula for an employee who had retired /resigned on a specified dateThanks for your support.

I am need of help with a specific date formula. It is as follows:I have a specific date that is calculated based on lead times in manufacturing. From that, I have a plant actual ship day of the week. Starting with the specific date, I need to calculate the next plant shipdate as an actual date, not day of week.
Is there a formula for doing this?Example:Specific Date: Plant Ship Day: Tuesday (depending on plant, this can be any day of the week so I have created a drop with all 7 weekdays to chose from)Needed: Next available ship date. In this example, is a Wednesday so the formula to determine the next Tuesday should equal. Hi,I have to calculate percentage between two dates and the formula I'm using is =(MIN(TODAY,F2)-E2+1)/(F2-E2+1) which is giving me the desired result. However, when I do not enter any dates in E2 and F2, I get a default result of 4272000% in cell G2.I want G2 to be blank when no information is available in E2 and F2, Also it should be blank if I enter dates in one of the cells E2 or F2 or even postdates.I would really appreciate if a formula could be devised in coordination with the above percentage formula to achieve the desired results.Thanks in advance. Sorry I can't find a solution to what I'm looking for in the large amounts of questions. Any help greatly appreciated:I'd like a formula that adds a certain value, or indeed a multiplier, based on a date of the month.
I.e a cell that adds another €100 automatically every 25th of the month, even better if it can stop after a year (Jan-Dec)I'm aware there would be the very long IF function variant using TODAY and a bit of juggling, but there must be a neater formula?Would love to hear some ideas. I am trying to calculate the difference between starting and ending time on a work shift. The calculation is okay if the hours are all in the same day. Start 8:00 am and quit at 5:00 pm.The problem I am having is if the starting time is 6:00 pm and the ending time is 3:00 am. I was hoping the answer would be 9 hours. Instead, the answer is 15 hours.The cells are formatted in hh:mm.
The cells are not formatted like dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm because of the number of employees that need to be entered. Hi,Need help please!I have a date in cell B2. I also have a a table from A5 to B8 (Column A are date values and Column B are price values).I need for Excel to use the date in B2 to search for the latest date in Column A before the date in B2, and throw me back the price from Column B.For example:B2=A5=A6=A7=A8=B5=$3.00B6=$3.00B7=$3.50B8=$3.70I need the formula to give me the $3.50 price.Can you please help me? I know it seems simple, but have been having a hard time with it.Sincere regards. Hello!I love your tutorials! I do have a question though.I have a documentation sheet that has 'Move In' dates and 'Move Out' dates for renters in their own separate columns. I also have a column that counts the days from the date that they first move in.
For example Move In Date is so the current number of days in house according to today's date would equal 25. However the formula I am using currently continues counting from the move in date to the current date (today). How would I get my counter to stop counting based on the move out date and retain the counting ability? I am working on completing an excel file that acts like a library book checkout/return listing. I was looking to find a way to have Excel see a date in one cell and automatically give a result of a date 60 days later within a different cell. I found the formula below on your site but was wondering how I could have the date automatically pop up when I input a checkout date in a different cell. Sort of like a conditional command.
For example: If I place 1/27/2017 in A2, I'd like 3/28/2017 to automatically show up in cell D2. How do I accomplish this command?Adding days to a date:=DATE(2015, 5, 20) + 15The formula adds 15 days to May 20, 2015 and returns June 4, 2015. I just found your blog and am amazed at the detail and depth of your responses! Quite impressive! I want to create a macro for entering payment data into certain rows of column M (where each row is one day) based on options from a drop down menu (accessed when any cell in column M is right clicked) and based on the date in column A.
The drop down menu options are: amount, start date, frequency (1 week, 2 week, 4 week, monthly), and number of payments (max 500). If the entry falls on a weekend, it should be moved back to fall on the Friday before. The first entry will be on the same row as the row of the date in column A and the remaining entries similarly. I know this is fairly complex and thank you so much for your help! You guys are great! Looks like you've helped a lot of people. Here is another one for you.Im trying to format columns based on an start date and an end date.
I've been able to insert a start date and get the following months to populate by using =EOMONTH($A$7,C$1) A7 being start date and row one being by number of months following. As it is now i have add or subtract columns manually to get to the correct end date. Then if i change the beginning date all the cells formatted below are in the wrong months.If you can it'd be great to get some help thanks. Hello EveryoneI've been looking everywhere for help to my edate error but cant find anything that works.

Hope someone here can help.I am trying to use edate to subtract 12 months from a given date to use in a look up calculation for Fiscal YTD results. Everything works fine until February 2017 rolled around and the results give me February 28, 2016 not February 29, 2016. Which causes a #N/A error.=IF(B8=EDATE(Q3,-12),B10,SUM(B10:INDEX(B10:Y10,1,MATCH(EDATE(Q3,-12),B8:Y8,0))))Is the formula I am using which works fine for every other month.Q3 refers to the current month end date: in this case: 2/28/2017Row 8 has dates in subsequent cells as follows:7/31/15 8/31/15 9/30/15 10/31/15 11/30/15 12/31/15 1/31/16 2/29/16 3/30/16 etc all the way up to my 2/28/17 month.the formula returns: 2/28/16 not the 2/29/16 I need to get my prior fiscal year to date total.In other words my formula returns the date as 42428 not 42429. Which the causes the formula to error out since there is no 42428 in the date cells.Thanks in advance for the help. Hi, can you help me with some date formula, i wanted to put formula in cell A1 where when you write anything on cell B1, the cell A1 will automatically generates a date for that day.
And on the next day, when you write on cell B2 the the cell A2 will automatically generate a date on the same day but will not affect the cell A1. Meaning if today is January 1, 1900 and write anything on cell B1, cell A1 will be dated January 1, 1900 and when i write tomorrow on cell B2, cell A2 will be dated January 2, 1900 but cell A1 will still be January 1, 1900. Hope you can help me. A former co-worker created a spreadsheet for our reimbursement use but the calculating/formula fields are locked down and I don't have the password. I need to recreate this spreadsheet and one of the fields/formulas has me stumped.Column A is a date column for manual entry by users. Starting at row 9 users enter a single date. Single dates can be entered up to row 54.The formula I need is for a period of time, based on the starting and ending dates found in column A.This is what the locked field looks like with no data in column A: 'From 1/0/00 to 1/0/00'This is what the locked field looks like with data in column A, row 9 (1st row of data) & row 12 (last row with data): 'From to '.My TEXT formula is not correct(=TEXT(A9,'mm/dd/yy')&' - '&TEXT(A54,'mm/dd/yy')The result is this:' - 01/00/00' (even though I have data/dates in rows 10-17)I'm not sure how well I have explained myself but any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi, I have written a macro to process dates as the X axis and the value as the Y axis. My challenges are that the length of column of dates could vary so some cells in the plotting range of the Macro could be empty (this returns default date in that cell of. So my first question is how to use the VBA code so that the range is only taken with all cells containing a date and blank cells are ignored?Next the macro will format the graph but i cant find a way to arrive at the X Axis minimum and Maximum Scale limits, if i use the 'auto' function then the graph does not display until I reduce the Min and Max date number to either side of the actual date range. I thought i could use the DATEVALUE function to set the date value number as an integer and use that in the MIN and MAX graph formatting Axis code: 'ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MinimumScale = 42817' and 'ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MaximumScale = 42823'. Replacing the number with the Integer for the start date and end date of my range.Any suggestions on the above, I have searched a lot but not found the answer yet. Hi there:)What is the best excel formula to use, to calculate the actual date based on the xx number of days + a specific date, where its counted as day 1?The formula I'm using currently, worked correctly on some dates, but not on others, it's one day less. Could this be due to the Stat holidays within the range?For example,a.
2 days starting from Aug 5, 17 = Aug 6, 2017b. 3 days starting from Aug 5, 17 = should be Aug 7, but the same formula I used for 'a' returned Aug 6c.
7 days starting from Aug 5, 17 = Aug 11, 17, but returned Aug 10.Please help! Download protector suite 2012 64bit. What am I missing.
