Question Hi, what im trying to do is add a set amount to the months.
ie. 31 days in Oct so I want to add $5.00 to every day, so Oct 1st is $5.00, Oct 2 is $10.00, Oct 3rd is $15.00.... i tried by setting out a row from 1-31 representing the number of days in Oct and then having a cell with $5.00 and uses a formula but im having to put in the formual under each date.
Is there an easier way to where i dont have to do this or put in the dollar amount above each date of the month? is there a way to have this calculated automatically on a daily basis with a micro?
Hope you can help, thanks Kelly
Answer How about putting the actual date in column A, and then in column B you could say:
=DAY(A1)*5
This would give you $5.00 for each day of the month, resetting back to $5 when you hit the first of next month.
