Number format
Hello
Can anyone help on this small query. I want to enter a year in a cell in this format "2006/07" I have several cells linked to this which will then populate in steps i.e. based on the year I have entered they will increase annually thus 2007/08, 2008/09 et seq. Can this be done? Many thanks Mars |

With 2007 in A1 Enter in B1 =LEFT(A1,2)&RIGHT(A1,2)&"/"&TEXT(RIGHT(A1,2)+1,"00") Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 12 May 2010 11:47:45 -0700 (PDT), mars wrote: Hello Can anyone help on this small query.

Thank you Bernd - your solution was ace too.
Can you (or Gord) indulge me one more time please? If I enter the year as before 2007/08 into A1 I would like the formula in C2 to read 01/01/2008 (always showing January of the latter year. Is this possible? Kind Regards Mars |
