What formula can I use to subtract 90 days to dates in another column?
Example:
Column A has a bunch of different dates.
I want Column B to be each date minus 90 days
What would the formula look like? I know how to set it up for a specific cell =[Column A]1 - 90 but when I try to translate that to the whole column =[Column A]:[Column A] -90 or =([Column A]:[Column A]) -90 I get an error.
Thank you!!

Hi Olivia,
Try something like this.
=[Column A]@row - 90
Did that work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

Hi Andree,
Wouldn't that target a specific row? I don't really want to do that, I'd like to be able to copy and paste the exact same formula everywhere in Column B and pull the Column A- 90 days date.
Thank you!

Happy to help!
@row will look at the row the formula is on so it should work the way that you need it to.
Make sense?
