I have a column with around 100,000 dates in it mostly from the last one year period.

I would like a formula to put into the next column that returns an "O" if the day was an odd number or an "E" if the day was an even number . for example 04/04/2019 O and 05/04/2019 E

With thanks

Mike.

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.

305-04-19TRUEE

C2=IF(ISEVEN(A2),"E","O")
C3=IF(ISEVEN(A3),"E","O")
