Start date in A1,
End date in B1,
Try this:

=DATEDIF(A1,B1,"m")

For an explanation of the function, check out Chip Pearson's web page:

I am trying to subtract 2 dates and return the result as number of
months.

I have seen post related to DateDif but whne I use this I get a Name
error.

How do I subtract dates and get number of months?

Thanks

Dave
