You can achieve your result by using the following function, DATEDIF; this function can calculate full months and days over the month as you require.
SYNTAX: =DATEDIF(start_date, end_date, "interval")
Interval may be "d", "m", "y", "md", "ym" which means day, month, year, days over month, months over year.

Difference between dates returning full months and remaining days
28-Sep-09
I'm trying to calculate difference between dates, but with a twist- I need to
return the number of full months between beginning and end dates, then, in
the next cell over, the remaining days. Here's where I am so far
(M=BeginDate, N=EndDate) for Months:
=IF(OR(M13="",N13=""),"",IF((DAY(M13)=1),(YEAR(N13 )-YEAR(M13))*12+MONTH(N13)-MONTH(M13)+1,(YEAR(N13)-YEAR(M13))*12+MONTH(N13)-MONTH(M13)))
Days:
=IF(OR(M13="",DAY(M13)=1),"",IF(N13="","",DAY((EOM ONTH(M13,0))-DAY(M13)+1)))
This is returning properly only if EndDate is the last day of a month. I
need it to work regardless of when the month the EndDate falls. Any
suggestions? Any help is much appreciated!
