Wouldn't a naive user have hoped to get 2 years from such a question?
And if you add a day to the length of a period, and you use 7/3/08 in A1 and
6/3/06, wouldn't one hope to get 2 years 0 months 1 day, rather than 2 years
1 month 1 day?

Isn't DATEDIF a better bet?

=a1-b1
format as custom yy:mm:dd
the above formula and format produces....
01:12:31
or 1 year, 12 months, 31 days
