It should work with any valid Excel date format, either yyyy/mm/dd or

Thank u stefi
I've checked my data (it's purely excel ) & I changed the date format to
yyyy/mm/dd.
When changed it into that format the formula is getting the result.
so thank u very much

I've checked and for me the formula returns 2 for 30/05/2005. Have a look at
the cell containing 30/05/2005! Is it a real Excel date?
