Hello, Using Excel 2007

I want to enter a date in one column and have another column calculate 28 days earlier, the next to calculate 10 days later

Any ideas?

thanks

hi,

if you date is in A2...
[tt]
=A2+28
next
=A2+10
[/tt]
or did you mean...
[tt]
B2: =A2+28
next
C2: =B2+10
[/tt]
??? Not clear

Skip,

Thanks Skip, Its column C that has the date I punch in and column D + 28 should be the calculated column

Then I punch in todays date in Column M and its Column N + 10 days.

I do this every day and wanted it to calculate the duration for me. Currently I open Outlook and us the calendar. I thought there's got to be a better way :)


thanks again

So is there still a question?

Yes, How do I get it for the whole column? Your formula appears to be for a single cell.


thanks

simply copy the cell and paste into a range.
