Calculate how many days to your birthday!
Hi! I think I followed the instructions but I got an error message.
This is from the tutorial in Windows 11. First it shows negative values, and then maybe if was too late to delete that?
And also, how can I type $ 5,000.00 in a table to sum up among other constants?

With everyone's permission, here's another approach, with two cells.
=IF(A1,DATE(YEAR(A1)+DATEDIF(A1+1,TODAY(),"y")+1,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))-TODAY(),"")
If it doesn't help, please just ignore it.

I guess the question is not which formula to use, but how to work with Microsoft tutorial

Which negative values do you mean.
Enter 5000 and apply any format you wish, in particular that could be currency format.
- Jorgen980Copper ContributorI have now added a picture in my post about negative values when I typed "=Today()". I could type
$ 5 000.00, but not $5,000.00, like someone had done in a tutorial.- SergeiBaklanDiamond Contributor
