Dates in Excel start on January 1, 1900, and continue to the present day.

Accordingly, January 1, 1900, equals 1, and each subsequent day adds one to that number.

Also, by default, when Excel compares dates, it takes midnight.

There is another interesting example to consider.

The point is that it’s possible for you to use Less Than or Equal in mathematical equations.

it’s possible for you to use this to organize your text list and alphabetize it.

it’s possible for you to also compare words with dates or numbers.

So its best to use it with functions from the IF category.

Let me give you an example of the COUNTIF function.

This function should look like this =COUNTIF([range],"<=1000").

Another useful function is the usual IF.
