Default Problem with working out the amount of quarters between two dates

dtEnd = DateValue("01/01/2004")
dtStart = DateValue("06/25/2002")
? Application.WorksheetFunction.Floor((((dtEnd-dtStart) / 365) * 4), 1)
6

Works fine. I suspect using a zero as the last argument is the source of
your problem. when you use Worksheetfunction.Floor and it returns an error,
it raises a trappable error like 1004. With the zero on the end, it raises
an error as it does in the worksheet itself.

I am trying to work out the remaining quarters between two dates. I
can get a result which I then want to floor. However excel is giving
me a Error '1004' with the following text: Unable to get the Floor
property of the WorksheetFunction class.
This doesn't surprise me as Floor is a method within that class. I
post my code below so as to show what I am trying to achieve.

installQ =

Application.WorksheetFunction.Floor((((DateValue(t bInstall1.Value)
- DateValue(tbTransDate.Value)) / 365) * 4), 0)
