I would like the end result to include Days, Hours, Minutes and Seconds.

In one cell I have the first date: 7/19/2006 2:54:51 PM
In a second cell I have the end date: 10/5/2006 2:12:06 PM

I'm trying to calculate the difference but I don't want Months, Months
should be counted as Days. I tried the following formula and I thought it was
going to work but it doesn't ...

=DATEDIF(C8,D8,"d") & " Days "& HOUR(D8-C8) & " Hours " & MINUTE(D8-C8) & "
Minutes " & SECOND(D8-C8) & " Seconds "

The response is 78 Days 23 Hours 17 Minutes 15 Seconds but in reality it
should be 77 Days not 78 Days. The number of Days is 78 if you don't take
into account the time but because of the time it is not technically 78 Days
yet.

Any thoughts?

Please! Help! Please!
