What I am trying to do with the attached excel spreadsheet is to place an IF
formula in each of the cells within the black border.
The formula cold be something like this: IF(row 4 = "april" then place a
number (say 1).  The problem I am facing is that even though the cells in
row 4 show names of months, the cells themselves obviously contain formulas
so when I place in the IF formula to search for the month of April, it isn't
doing it as it is looking at the relevant cell and seeing a formula not a
word. Is there any syntax to tell the formula to look at the text of the
cell rather than the formula ie the formula looks at "i4" and sees "Apr"
rather than seeing  "Date(year(...),Mont(...)+...,1)"?

 

Kind regards
Pauline Wood
