Default Differences between Dates

Why use DAYS360, when B1-A1 would do the trick directly (and doesn't have
the 30 day approximation)?

Format your start date and end date cells to a date format, then use
=DAYS360(A1,B1); A1 being your start date, and b1 being your end date.
Note
that this formula bases a year on 360 days (12 months with 30 days).

My fields are like this.
Start Date End Date Total Days

What the total day box need to be in days not dates.

Thanks
