How to add 1 year to date in Excel.

Use the EDATE() function =EDATE(A1,12) will give you a date a year hence Replace 12 with 24, 60 and 120 for 2, 5 and 10 years hence. Life's a spreadsheet, Excel!
Similarly, the formula to calculate the number of complete years is =DATEDIF(A1,A2,y) , although in our example it would yield 0 complete years. Change cell A1 to a date a year or more earlier and you'll see the result.

There's a Function in Excel that makes this task easy but for some reason Microsoft has hidden it away. You won't find it in the Paste Functions list (Insert, Functions).
