How to match and automate dates?

Eva Campbell
ββ
If I have two tasks and want the due date from one to trigger and match a start date from the next what do I do?
For example: Task 1 has a start date of 8/20/23 and a due date of 8/29/23, when the due date is put in or changed I want the start date of Task 2 to match (also be 8/29/23).
I have tried some =IF functions and watched some videos but am still struggling. Any suggestions?
Thank you!!!

In the Cell you are looking to insert the formula, try =DATEONLY and select the Cell of the due date. Does that work?
