Default Subtracting Dates

Hi

The easiest answer is to take one from the other:
=A3-A2
and format the result as General.

Afternoon.

I am trying to subtract dates on an excel worksheet and find the term
between the two. For example (english date format dd/mm/yy)

01/01/05 - 01/01/04 = 365 days or 1 year

I would ideally like the output to be years then months then days but
anything would do. Is this possible in excel? If not does anyone know
of an online calculator that could do this?

Thanks

Sam
