EOMONTH
Returns the date of the last day of a month.
This function is only available if Analysis AddIn is installed.
Syntax:
EOMONTH(startdate; addmonths)
- addmonths is a number of months to be added to the startdate (given as text or a date-time serial number), to give a new date. For this new date, EOMONTH returns the date of the last day of the month, as a date-time serial number.
- addmonths may be positive (in the future), zero or negative (in the past).
Example:
EOMONTH("2008/02/14"; 0)
- returns 39507, which may be formatted as 29Feb08. 2008 is a leap year.
EOMONTH(A1; 2)
- where cell A1 contains the date 16Dec07, again returns 39507, which may be formatted as 29Feb08.
