    ‘Tis something that should be simple but I fear will involve umpteen lines of code!

    I’ve got a column for Year, Month and Day and want to work out the value other two when a figure is inputted into any of them. Any pointers?

    Cheers,

    Question doesn’t make much sense.

    If I enter a year then what do you want month and day to be populated with ? Ditto entering a month or a day.

    If I enter a a value in the Year column I want to divide it into a value per Month and per Days, or enter a value per Day and multiply it per Month and Year etc.

    what kind of “value” are you entering? A full date “06/08/13” or just a year “2013”

    Q still makes no sense

    OK, I read this as you enter a value against either a year, month or day.

    As an example, the value represents “widgets sold”.

    If I enter 200 widgets sold in the year column then you want 200/12 to appear in the month column and 200/365 in the day column (forget leap years). If I enter 1 widget sold in the day column then you want 1*(365/12) in the month column and 1*365 in the year column.
    Similarly, populating say 5 widgets in the month column gives 12*5 in year and 5/(365/12) in the day column.

    Correct ?

    I want to work out the other two per each row.
