![]() Hello, I can get the Ardus Petus to work very well, but I can't seem to get the David formula ...DATEDIF(A1, TODAY(), "y")... to work. It looks like there may be a space between the ..first comma and today... and also a space between the ...second comma and the first quotation mark... Irregardless, I can't get it to work with or without a space. I have tried formating my formula cell to TEXT, then to NUMBER, and then to GENERAL. I can't get it to go. I also have put an equal sign at the first and that didn't help. Could the formula be incorrect or am I doing something wrong? -- lsmft ------------------------------------------------------------------------ lsmft's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30678 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=523477 |

What specifically do you mean by "can't get it to work"? Do you
receive an error value in the cell? An unexpected result?
