- I have a series of dates in cells within an Excel 3.0 sheet.
-
- What's the easiest way to display those dates as quarters?
-
- For example, I would want dates 1/1 through 3/30 displayed
- something like "Q1", 4/1 through 6/30 displayed something
- like "Q2", etc.
-
- Can this be done through the Format-Number command? Or do
- I need to convert the dates through cumbersome formulae
- with "IF" statement(s)?
-
- Thx much,
- Steve
