    Re: Find out who's birthday it maybe today()

    Try this...
    Enter array formula in cell C3 and copy down
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =IFERROR(INDEX(B:B,SMALL(IF(A$3:A$12=$B$2,ROW(A$3:A$12)),ROWS(C$3:C3))),"")

    **Must be entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter key combination.

    I think that it would be better just to have Month and Day as text and Col A and TODAY() should be as text as well
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =TEXT(TODAY(),"mmm-dd")

    v A B C
    1 Today's Date
    2 B-Day Jun-14 Today's Birthday

    If date of birth in column "A"
    In column "B2"
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =IF(ISERR(DATEDIF(TODAY(),DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A2),DAY(A2)),"d")),IF(AND(DATEDIF(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A2),DAY(A2)),TODAY(),"d")<=2,WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=1),"The last weekend",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=1,MONTH(TODAY())=12),DATEDIF(TODAY(),DATE(YEAR(TODAY())+1,MONTH(A2),DAY(A2)),"d"),"Not soon enough")),IF(DATEDIF(TODAY(),DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A2),DAY(A2)),"d")<61,IF(TODAY()-DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A2),DAY(A2))=0,"Happy birthday",DATEDIF(TODAY(),DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A2),DAY(A2)),"d")),"Not soon enough"))
