5.19 USING DATE AND TIME AND ADDRESSING MODES To enter the current date in a cell, the NOW and TODAY functions are used. Then, the entered date can be formatted in any of the several date formats supported by Excel by using the Format, Cells command. Internally, the date is stored as a date serial number that is equal to the number of days elapsed since January 1, 1900. By default, the Now function displays both date and time. However, to display only the date or time in the desired format, use the Format, cells command and choose the Date or Time category. The F9 key is used to freeze the current date or time in the cell. To enter a specific date in a cell, we can use any of the supported date formats, such as 14-Apr-99, 14/Apr/99. As, internally, dates are entered as date serial numbers, we can compare dates, or subtract one date, from another to find out the number of days between them. We can use the DAY, MONTH and YEAR functions to extract day, month and year information, respectively from a date. While copying a formula, Excel uses the relative cell addressing. It supports two other addressing modes. These are absolute and mixed. To convert a relative cell reference to absolute or mixed, we can use the F4 function key.
