Somebody used the row(indirect()) just a couple of days ago.

I was lucky that I remembered!

Dang! 30 minutes wasted on a worse formula

=A1-A2-SUM(--ISNUMBER(DATEVALUE("2/29/"&IF(YEAR(A1)=YEAR(A2),IF(OR(MONTH(A2)2,MONTH(A1) <=2),2003,YEAR(A1)),ROW(INDIRECT("A"&(YEAR(A1)-1+(MONTH(A1)2))&":A"&(YEAR(A2)+(MONTH(A2)2)))))) ))

I put my larger date in A1 and my smaller date in A2 and used this
formula:

=A1-A2-SUMPRODUCT(--(TEXT(ROW(INDIRECT(A1&":"&A2)),"mmdd")="0229"))

I need a formula that counts leap years as 365 days instead of 366
days.

My work sheet is set up as follows:

c10=6/6/2003
f10=06/15/2003
h10=f10-c10

c13=6/15/2003
f13=6/6/2004
h13=f13-c13

i need the sum of h10 and h13 to always equal 365 even if it is a
leap
year

other things that may help you understand this worksheet:
c9=prior anniversary date
f9=calculation date
h9=low days
c12=calculation date
f12=next anniversary date
h13=high days

and i need high days and low days to always equal 365

i need excel to never calculate a february 29
