# DATE

This function calculates a date specified by year, month, day and displays it in the cell's formatting. The default format of a cell containing the DATE function is the date format, but you can format the cells with any other number format.

### Syntax

DATE(year; month; day)

\<emph\>Year\</emph\> is an integer between 1583 and 9956 or 0 and 99.

In LibreOffice - PreferencesTools - Options - LibreOffice - General you can set from which year a two-digit number entry is recognized as 20xx.

\<emph\>Month\</emph\> is an integer between 1 and 12 indicating the month.

\<emph\>Day\</emph\> is a number between 1 and 31 indicating the day of the month.

If the values for month and day are higher, they are carried over to the next digit. If you enter =DATE(00;12;31) the result will be "12/31/00." If, on the other hand, you enter =DATE(00;13;31) the result will be "1/31/01."

### Example:

=DATE(00;1;31) yields the date 2000-01-31 written as 1/31/00 if the cell format setting is MM/DD/YY.

#### Technical information

This function is part of the Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) standard Version 1.2. (ISO/IEC 26300:2-2015)
