How do you add to dates

RE: Dates

Hi Helen

Thank you for your question and welcome the forum.

You can use dates as part of formulas in Excel, as Excel stores a date as a number (or value).

For example if you have entered today's date into cell A1, you can create a formula reading =A1+30 which will add 30 days to the date in cell A1, and give you the date which is 30 days after this date.

Excel tip:

Entering text in Multiple Worksheets

If you have a number of worksheets in a workbook that require the same information (data or tables) on each worksheet, this can be done as follows:

Hold down the Ctrl key and click one or more of the additional worksheet tabs (i.e. Sheet2, Sheet3, etc).

In your mainsheet (Sheet1) enter the required data or design a table.

When done 'Click' on the other sheet tabs and you will see that the information entered in Sheet1 is on all the other selected worksheets.

NB Do not forget to deselect the worksheets - otherwise you may add data to the main worksheet and all the selected worksheets will also have that data!
