Date Formulas?

How can I write a formula to tell me when a date is past three years from today but does not give a response if there is no date?

    This should work for you:

    =IFERROR(IF([Your Date Column Reference here]@row > TODAY(1095), "yes", "no"), "")

    Just change the text of "Yes" and "No" to whatever indicators you would like.

    When using this, the blanks are still returning a no. Is there a way to get the blanks to not return anything or something other than no?

    As @CodyRussell stated in his post, just remove the no from inside the quotes.

    =IFERROR(IF([Your Date Column Reference here]@row > TODAY(1095), "yes", " "), "")

    Hi @Joe Roaden

    I would replace the IFERROR with an IF ISDATE. That way you can retain the "no" when a date is present and is not past 3 years from today, but return blank (or something else - I have used "no date") if there is not a date.

    =IF(ISDATE([Your Date Column Reference here]@row), IF([Your Date Column Reference here]@row > TODAY(1095), "yes", "no"), "no date")
