AUTO FILL DATE 1ST & 15
I need to create column headers that show a date progression through several
years, showing the 1st & the 15th of each month. I think I've tried everything in my fill series options, but nothing is working (I even tried ".5 months") Is there a simple answer to this? Thanks for your help.

With your first date in B1:
=IF(DAY(B1)=1,DATE(YEAR(B1),MONTH(B1),15), DATE(YEAR(B1),MONTH(B1)+1,1)) -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "lolan7" wrote: I need to create column headers that show a date progression through several years, showing the 1st & the 15th of each month.

If you don't need formulas and you are XL2002 or better then select the 2
date. Drag them as usual. When complete select the Fill options at the bottom right of the filled cells. Choose months... You can get the same thing dragging with the right mouse button and choosing months. -- HTH...
