Perhaps I'm being dense....but....

Hire Date: 01-MAR-2000
Today : 27-FEB-2007

Per the formula: 2 days until the next anniversary date

The math:
Hire Date Anniversary: 01-MAR-2007
Less: Today's date : 27-FEB-2007
Equals : 2 days

Can you clarify what you discovered?

Startin' to look pretty good!

Upon further testing of my previous offering I find it fails if the hire
date is a leap day so I'll put that in the round file and "stash" this
beauty cooked up by Ron.

Nope, it is not starting to look good at all... this formula, and Ron's
original, also get tripped up by a start date of 02/29/2000 (or any February
29th in a proper leap year)... it happens whenever the "TODAY" date is
anywhere within the range of January 1st to February 28th. Unfortunately,
that is the least of the problems...

As it turns out, ALL of the formulas submitted so far (including Ron's and
its variations) will produce an incorrect calculation if the TODAY date is
anywhere within the range of January 1st to February 28th of a NON leap year
and the start date is any day on or after March 1st of a leap year... under
those conditions, the date difference will be one day less than it is
supposed to be. To test what I am saying, try a Start Date of March 1, 2000
and a TODAY date of February 27, 2007. There should be 3 days difference
between these days (Feb 28, Feb 29 and Mar 1), but all formulas report 2
days... and this missing day is carried forward for Start Dates up to and
including December 31, 2007.
