[mso] Date functions in Excel




Unfortunately not something that I normally work with - dates that is :-)

I need to ascertain where a certain date falls - in relation to the
financial year.

My input is into a formatted cell (date formatted) from which I want a
function to ascertain which financial year it falls into.

I have tried something along the lines of this formula:

=IF(A1>31/03/03<01/04/04,"2003/04",0)

which generates 0 in ALL cases.

Once I get this to work (I have a sneaking suspicion that the problem is
between reading US date and UK date) I need to be able to expand this to
more than just the one year which I intend to do using nested IF's - unless
someone has a better solution.

Thanks for your assistance in advance.
