How do I count the number of days from 1 date to another?
I need to calculate the number of calander days from one date to another.
For example: if the start date is January 1, 2006 and the end date is January 2, 2006, I need the answer to be 2. When I subtract January 1 from January 2 I get an answer of 1. Please help. |

Well if that is your definition of difference, just add 1 to the difference.
So if two dates are equal the difference is 1? -- Kind regards, Niek Otten "Steve R" Steve wrote in message ... I need to calculate the number of calander days from one date to another.

How do I count the number of days from 1 date to another?
Your right on track. It is as simple as it appears, but you want something
different than your asking for. 1/2/2006 and 1/1/2006 are only one day different, so the answer is 1. Just add 1 to the end of your formula to, in effect, calculate the days between 12/31/2005 and 1/2/2006. i.e., not =a2-b2 instead =A2-(B2-1) that should do it.
