360Days Formula
Is there a formula OR special add in to Excel that can calculate the TRUE
number of days between two dates. That is, a formula that takes into account the 31st day of certain months and February 29 every four years? I find the 360days formula very helpful but I think users would get a lot more bang with one that "truly" gave them the number of days between two given dates. Please help. Thank you. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

360Days Formula
Microsoft uses a scheme called "Serial dates" to keep track of dates.
If you enter information in Excel-approved date format, you can calculate the number of days between two dates as simply as =B1-A1 where A1 and B1 are dates. Do a search on time and date functions in Help to find out how extensively this has been covered. |
