You're right - I changed it to the simplier formula, but I tested your
formula on dates 2/1/2008 to 3/1/2008 = 29 days and 2/1/2009 to 3/1/2009 = 28
days. I don't want it to count that leap day. Any other ideas?

I'm not sure why you are using =DATEDIF(A1,A2,"d") instead of =A2-A1, but it
may be worth trying:
=(YEAR(A2)-YEAR(A1)-((YEAR(A2)-YEAR(A1))DATEDIF(A1,A2,"y")))*365+DATEDIF(A1,A2," yd")You may, of course, be able to simplify that.I assume that if there is more than one Feb 29 in the period, you want tosubtract one for each?--David Biddulph"PMBO" wrote in ...

I don't want to count that one additionalday in a leap year; I know I can include a -1 in my formula, but I'm lookingfor something that will decide if it's a leap year and automaticallysubtract it from my date difference formula. Your formula can be altered to not count Feb 29. Post your formula andsomeone will show you how to account
for that. --ron
