I would like to change a column wherein only the month needs to be changed for the whole column (day needs to stay the same). Rather than manually changing the month for each cell in the column, is there a formula to just change the month leaving day the same for the entire column? Can this be done? If so, how. Thanks. Susan
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Welcome to the Board!

If you entries are true dates, you can just add the number of days in that month.
Let's say that your values go down column A, and cell A1 has the date of January 1, 2018.
Since January has 31 days, place the number 31 in any blank cell.
Then, select that cell, select Copy, then select the entries in column A and then right-click, select Paste Special, select Values, and and click OK.
This will add 31 to all your dates in column A.

The way I read that is with starting date in A1.
In A2:
=DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1)+1,DAY(A1))
Copy down.

I might have misunderstood. I thought it was the dates of a (single) particular month.

I was thinking that the Op had something like col A which needs to be changed to what's in col B, but leaving it in col A
