Default Datedif using cell references Excel 2000

That's weird. I could have sworn when I looked at this question, there were
no replies. Then I replied and I see like 8 people have already answered.

Try reversing the order of b1 and a1. In the test I tried, that's how I got
rid of the #num error.

I'm using Excel 2000 and trying to use the datedif function. I've formated 2
columns as date m/dd/yyyy and left the formula column general I'm entering
dates
A1: 1/1/2002
B1: 1/1/2005

I'm entering the formula in C1
=datedif(b1,a1,"M")

I'm looking for the nmber of months between 2 dates

I get #NUM! for a result.

Thanks
