    Administrative Note:

    Welcome to the forum.

    Is your forum profile showing the version of Excel that you need this to work for?

    Members will tailor the solutions they offer to the version of Office (Excel, NOT Windows) that you have. Please check that your forum profile is up-to-date in this respect. If you aren't sure, in Excel go to File | Account and report what it says below the MS logo at the top of that page. If your version is for Mac, please also state this.

    The three most recent versions of Excel are Excel 2019, Excel 2021 and MS365 - if you are using MS365, please give this name along with the release number in your profile (e.g. MS365 Version 2211). This is in the About Excel section further down the Account page.

    Thanks.
    Ali

    Re: Years not updating in Excel worksheet

    No sample sheet... despite asking...

    Try:

    =date(year(today()),month(1&"May"),1)

    and format the cell as "mmm yyyy"

    Another method,

    ="May "&YEAR(TODAY())

    Re: Years not updating in Excel worksheet

    Thank you.
    I would gladly send the file, but cannot due to the sensitivity of date already in the file.
    Your suggestion helped, but only for the month at hand. I have 25 years in the file, ranging from January 2002, to 2028.
    Would be great to find a global solution in the formula. It worked properly before, and all the months were listed properly with year, accordingly, only now, recently, all months in the entire file are listed as "2002" year, except for January in each year, they are listed correctly.

    The difference being that mine returns an actual date that you might need eslewhere, whereas the other returns a text label.

    If neither are suitable, no more guessing games please - upload a sample sheet showing what you do want.

    Re: Years not updating in Excel worksheet

    To be honest, I am not sure where to start. This is a little bit of a mess.

    You have twenty-something Named Ranges called Calendar Year, MOST of which point to the WRONG year. For example the CalendarRange in 2004 points to the January (03) sheet.

    This has been made so overly complicated... It might be easier to start all over again WITHOUT those Named Ranges, or simplify things and have ONE file per year.
