    Need to convert years into days

    This seems like it should be pretty basic, but i can't seem to figure
    it out.
    I need to convert data in row c: (Age in years) to Age in days (in row
    I)
    For example, if the patient is 1 years old, I need to convert 1 in row
    C to 365 in row I.
    Thanks!

    If you don't care about leap years, then are you using the simple formula of (1*365)? obviously you would substitute a cell
    reference in place of the 1 so it would accomodate any number. If you want to be more accurate, you will need the birth date and
    current date =TODAY(), or whatever date you want to use as your cutoff date for purposes of calculation.

    If you have the Date of Birth somewhere on your s/s you could use
    =NOW()-CellRef
    That will return as a numeric value based on todays date minus the date of
    birth

    In Cell I1, type =C1*365.
    Is this what you want?
    You input in C1 is 1, right?

    Yup, that is what I want; but what I need is an easy way to reference
    7842 rows of data. I was wondering if there was a formula that took the
    values of row C and multiplied them by 365 without me manually changing
    the formula for each row of data.

    Thanks

    yeah, in the first just type =a1*365 then copy it down, or select all the
    formula cells and type =A1*365 and Ctrl-Enter rather than just Enter.
