How to automatically fill rows with dates based on cell value?
Hi Everyone. I have a spreadsheet that looks like this: How can I make it for whatever number I put in B2 it takes the date in A4 and extends it by the number of months from B2 and a...
Hi,
I think the most robust way to do this is as follows:
- Link cell A4 to the cell B2 by just using this formula in cell A4 =B2
- Then use this formula in the cell A5 =IF(ROW(A1)>=$B$1,"",EDATE($A$4,ROW(A1)))
- And then drag it down to whatever limit you want

Hope that helps

- Thanks for replying. Is there any way for the new date cells to be added automatically when I put a number in to cell B2?
Thanks.Hi,
As the screenshot you attached, the number of months is in the cell B1 not in cell B2!
What is in cell B2 is the start date!
So the dates should automatically be filled in cells when you change the number in cell B1.
Please see the attached file in my previous reply to test that!

Hi.
My mistake, I meant B2, not B1.
Thank you for the attached file too. I will check it out.
