Greetings:

Here's a problem that I've yet to figure out.

I'm trying to determine the number of months, weeks and days between
two dates to determine what the cost of a rented item will be, when the
vendor offers a discount for monthly rates over weekly rates over daily
rates. The standard pricing is always with the assumption that a month
is thirty (30) days, a week is seven (7) days, and a day is, well a
day...regardless of the actual calendar months they cover.

The desire is to have the answer divided in to three fields. For
instance, a rental for 39 days would ideally return the answer "1
month, 1 week, two days", in unique cells specific to each piece of
data.

Can anyone help with this? Thanks!
