Please help me, what formula should I use?

when in cell G4=28.2.2024, then
G6=06

Try this:

=IF(YEAR(G4)=2024,O6,IF(YEAR(G4)=2025,P6,IF(YEAR(G4)=2026,Q6,"")))

deleted. Was thinking incorrectly.
Joe has a solution for you.

But what exactly are you trying to do? Are you trying to return the values in Rows 7 or 8 as well?

Best Wishes.

Try this:

=IF(YEAR(G4)=2024,O6,IF(YEAR(G4)=2025,P6,IF(YEAR(G4)=2026,Q6,"")))

yes perfect

this is how it works.
thank you.

May I ask where did I go wrong, why didn't it work for the date?
How to write a formula when I need an exact date (dd.mm.yyyy)

I think the issue is that this format:

=IF(G4="28.2.2024"...

is checking for a text value of "28.2.2024" (double-quotes usually indicate literal text and not dates).

You could use this:

=IF(G4=DATE(2024,2,28)...

or perhaps something like the below, depending on your regional date settings (may be different for different people):

=IF(G4=DATEVALUE("28.2.2024")...

I am not sure what your regional date settings are, so I cannot say if that will work for you.
Just change the format of the date between the double-quotes to match your regional date settings.

I would also add, that using text to record dates, in the long run causes more headaches than you think. Just format the cells to a date format (any one you like) and excel will work fine.
To get components out of those values you use the Year(), Month(), Day(), Hour(), Minute(), Second() functions. And plenty of other date related functions. When you must compare something to a text like "Sat" just use the Text(value, format) function to convert the date to the text string you need, in the case I just mentioned" Text(date,"ddd") would give you a 3 digit string for the day of ht week name.

yes perfect

The other two formulas also work,
I just changed mine "," → ";"

thank you very much for the explanation.

I'm going to try and learn

thank you very much for the explanation.
