Hi All,

This may seem a silly question, but I have created a table and Excel formats the data set nicely and adds filters etc, however in my Table Headers I have months, Jul-2013, Aug-2013 and so on. Now when I click and drag Aug-2013 to the right, hoping it will auto-fill with the value of Sep-2013, it doesn't, it makes the value Sep-2014. Is there any way to make it so that when I auto-fill to the right, it goes to the next month? I've looked for an answer to his but can't find what I'm looking for.

Using a mouse in Excel is the work equivalent of wearing a lanyard when you first get to college
In the first header date put an actual date e.g. 1/1/2013
Format that row as Custom: mmm-yyyy
In the adjacent cell put this formula and drag right =EDATE(A1,1)
This adds one month to each date.
