Hello!
I need to write a formula that will calculate how many days are left in a
specific month and can't seem to get a working one. Seems like it should be
relatively easy.
Example:
Cell A1 contains date of 03/09/98.
I need cell B1 to contain the resulting number as 22 days remaining.
Cell A2 contains date of 04/03/98
Cell B2 should contain the resulting number as 27 days remaining.
I tried this:
=(DAY(DATE(YEAR(A2),MONTH(A2)+1,0))-(DAY(A2)))
Which actually works, but I was just wondering if there was a less
complicated way? Trying to explain this one to the person requesting the
spreadsheet may not be the easiest of jobs and I know I'll get questioned on
it.
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Elf
If you don't want to deal with the Analysis Tool Pak, you could use the
formula:
=32-DAY(A1)-DAY(A1-DAY(A1)+32)
Format as General or Number
