    formula for auto date change after a year

    I need a help with a formula for the below.

    a) I have a date in a certain cell and I want to change it automatically after every one year. E.g. 25th Mar. 2017 will become 25th Marc. 2018.

    b) I want to change the date of a cell with a regular interval of 15 days.

    Thanks

    =A1+15 will change data for once after 15 days. But I want it to be recurring. E.g. A1+15 then again (A1+15)+15 and so on.

    Thanks

    But that is what the formula does if you copy it down

    Re: formula for auto date change after a year

    I need to change the date only in one cell. I don't have the choice to copy it down as there are other dates with other conditions in the cells below.

    Thanks

    So how does the cell value change?
    Do you want a button to click that says add 15 days to cell date?

    Re: formula for auto date change after a year

    I simply want to a formula to put in a single cell that could change the date automatically after every 15 days. E.g. 11th Apr. then after 15 days it should get changed to 26th Apr. then again after 15 days it should get changed to 11th May and so on but only in a single cell.

    Thanks

    Put in the correct first date into this formula and the date will change automatically every 15th day

    Why wait?
    Test it tomorrow morning

    Try putting 22 March in the formula now (instead of 11 April)
    - today it will show 6 April
    - tomorrow it will show 21 April
