    Capturing a cell data based on a date and maintaining that data when the data changes

    I am struggling to find a solution to capture cell data based on a specific date and then maintaining that data when the date changes. And I need to do this without scripting. I would like to capture this value and retain it once the month advances. This is what I have so far, but it clearly doesn't work as the value will change each month:Capture.JPG

    What cell? What data? Do you have a table of data? Why no scripting?

    Re: Capturing a cell data based on a date and maintaining that data when the data changes

    Thanks for replying. I attached a quick overview of what I am trying to do. Essentially, I want to capture the data in any cell [ =IF(MONTH(B1)>6,A1,"?")], based on a date and then I don't want that data to change again. I am not proficient with VBA, and I would prefer to do it with a formula.
    Thank you for your help.

    You don't need to be proficient: I need to be proficient (I am ), and you just need to follow instructions.

    Copy the code below, right-click the sheet tab, select "View Code" and paste the code into the window that appears. Save the file as a macro-enabled workbook (.xlsm).

    Then, whenever the sheet is calculated, any cell with a formula that is of the form
    =IF(MONTH......)
    and that does not return a question mark will be converted to a value.
