What does the today function do?

RE: Today function

Hello Linette

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

The TODAY function
=today()

displays the current date in the cell you enter it into.

The date will update itself automatically, i.e. it will always display the current date.

Kind regards
Amanda

Excel tip:

Conditional Formatting in Excel 2010

If you have lots of data in a spreadsheet, you may find that it is easier to read if you highlight some of the values. This is Conditional Formatting and here's how to use it:

1) Select the data you wish to apply the format to and click Conditional Formatting
2) A list of options will then appear, from this list, choose the format you wish to display e.g. find all cells with a value less than 0
3) Excel will then highlight all of these cells

To remove this: select the highlighted cells, click the drop down on the Conditional Formatting icon and select Clear Rules from selected cells.
