what can i use instead of the new SEQUENCE function to generate dates? my users specify the frequency that they receive income and then input the first receipt date. All good for weekly and fortnightly; just add 7 or 14 to the specified date. Monthly is causing me grief. i can use an index match formula to pick up the frequency specified by the user and find the number of days to add to the specified date for weekly or fortnightly but how to do monthly??? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
will use Edate. it seems to work.
