To calculate the number of days: =A1-B1

To calculate the number of work days: =NETWORKDAYS(a1-b1)

PROBLEM 1:

I have 2 columns, One column with Dates entered, and one column that I
would like to calculate how many days it has been since the date
entered.

_Date_Entered_(Or_Purchased)_ This is column "A"


_Days_Since_Date_Entered_(or_Todays_date_less_Date _entered)_ This is
column "BT"
How do I created a formula for this column based on Date Entered?


PROBLEM 2:

Column "BU" is a drop down box that gives 2 possible choices.
1. Incomplete
2. Complete

When the end user chooses complete, I want the system date to show in
column "BV".

Does anyone have any suggestions? (I'm an Excel novice) Thank you.
