Here is my question, If I have 12 cells relating to a date and want to be able input a date in any of those 12 cells I want 1 additonal cell to tell me a future date based on the date in any of the preceding 12 cells. The future date should be able to reflect 90, 180 or 360 days in the future, again based on the date input in either of the first 12 cells.

Hi Ken:

I suggest you post your data using HTMLmaker (Colo's Cool utility) along with your expected result, so we can see what you are working with -- and then let us take it from there!

Then in cell H5, use this formula:
Code:
=INDEX(A5:G5,MATCH(MAX(A5:G5),A5:G5,0))+30

It will find the newest date entered in A-G and add 30 to that.
Let me know if this works for you.

I swear, I overcomplicate things way too much. The formula I used was a dumb way of getting this:
Code:
=MAX(A5:G5)+30
As for colo, I've personally never used it, sorry.
