Hi when doing excel formulas, before it worked if i used a " , " but now i get an error and have to replace it with a " ; " for all formulas to work
example
=if(A2=0, "Yes", "No")
this used to work , above, but now does not and only works if i write is as
=if(A2=0; "Yes"; "No")

is there a setting in excel or windows to fix this? also sometimes when exporting to an excel format all " . " are coming in as " , " throwing off my calculations and lookups

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
I think maybe it's the country settings of your computer. Did you change things recently?
