    Filtering date according to first day of each month

    Hi everyone,

    I would like to filter first days of each month over several years i.e. how I could easily filter my data like "1/1/2010, 1/2/2010 ..... 1/1/2011, 1/2/2011 and etc." Please see attached file.

    Thanks

    Use a formula in column E that returns the day number then you can filter on day 1.

    Entered in E2 and copied down:

    =DAY(A2)

    All of your dates are already the 1st of the months (unless you did that just for demonstration purposes).

    Re: Filtering date according to first day of each month

    Im not sure I understand your question? Your dates are already only 1st of the month

    Or did you mean that you only want to show Jan, Feb, Mar (for instance) for all years?

    Edit: If you meant only those months, try this, copied down in a helper column - then filter on that helper...
    =IF(MONTH(A2)<=3,A2,"")

    I am having a similar problem. I update the Data from 5/1 to 6/1 but my pivot table and charts do not read the new data in column A?
