=IF function with current date
Hello,
I am trying to set up a rental sheet that will update the costs daily. These costs are then to be uploaded into our accounting system daily. A simplified version of the sheet looks like this. ....................................=b1-a1 Start Date End Date Total Days 8/17/2012.......................-41138 (I would like a current total of days to be updated daily) .........................................0 .........................................0 8/17/2012...8/19/2012.....2 8/18/2012......................-41139 The problem is there is no running current date (or =today()) anywhere in the workbook. I am not sure how to set up an IF function that will: 1.) read 0 days when there is no start date 2.) have a current number of days from the start date when the end date is left blank (i.e. rentals started 8/1 today is 8/3 it has been 2 days) 3.) Have a final total of days when the start and end date is filled in Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance! |

Thank you in advance! -- ChooseParkay I would probably develop a macro that would use DATE to set the values and then export to wherever desired. All ONE mouse click with no formulas required. |

I'm not sure I'm following you on this one. Could you please explain more of how to use a macro with a date function?
