Hi,
How can i find the duration (No. of days) between two days.

ex. (10/20/2006 to 10/31/2006)

Thx & Regards,

Hi

Just take the earlier data away from the later date.
="10/31/2006"-"10/20/2006"
or with dates in A1 10/20/2006 and B1 10/31/2006
=B1-A1

Add 1 to the result if you want to include the whole of the 20th and the
whole of the 31st.
Format the cell with your formula as FormatCellsGeneral.

There is also an "undocumented" formula:
=DATEDIF(A1,B1,"d")

Thanks Roger
Its working fine.
Also i want to add days to any date.
e.g. (adding 5days to 10/20/2006 i.e it should be 10/25/2006)

Thx again,

Simply use the plus sign to add. If 10/20/2006 is in A1, use:

=a1+5

to get 10/25/2006.
