list formula for dates

[Jim]

Hello,

In cell B1 I have a list of all months of the year. In the A column I would
like to have the days of the month show depending on which month is picked.
For example in the first chart I have January selected from the list. All
the months of January are showing. In the second chart, February is showing
in the list. In the A column all the months of February show.

What formula can I use that would change these dates depending on what month
is selected from the list in B1?

In addition, in the months where there are short days would someone provide
a formula that shows a blank cell?

Thanks

Try this:
A1: =DATEVALUE(B1&" 1")

A2:=IF(MAX(A$1:A1)>=EOMONTH($A$1,0),"",A1+1)
Copy that formula down through A31

Does that help?

Did you get an error? a wrong value?

What value is in Col_B? Is it the word "January" or "February" or is it a
date value?

If you received the #NAME? error, then:
Tools>Add Ins>Check: Analysis Toolpak
