Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: How does the Mod operator work with dates
Hi jeff Wu
In excel every date has some number corresponding to it it. and it start at
the date "01-jan-1900" for this date the number is 1 and for the date
"02-jan-1900" the number is 2 and so on. so whenever we do any calculation
first the date is converted into its corresponding number and then only its
result is evluated.
And in your case you can see the corresponding number of the date April 7
2003 is 37718 you nac see this just format the cell B3 as number.
Hope it will provide you more clear view about the Date.
Regards
Prince

Dear All
How are you? I'm trying to learn VBA by following examples in the Excel
Macro book I got. I got stuck with one of the function examples relating to
using Mod operator with date. This example converts week number to a date.
Please see the attached Macro for details. I'm having trouble figuring out
the line:
FirstMon = FirstMon - FirstMon Mod 7 + 2
I understand how MOD works with numbers but just don't understand how a date
can be divided by a number. In this case I know this equation figures out
the first Monday of any given year but just couldn't figure out how to
divide a date to get the remainder, and also I couldn't figure out the logic
of the + 2 was there for? Any feedbacks will be much appreciated!
Best Regards
