Default Formula Help

Looking for a formula that shows days left to comply to something.
So lets say column A has a date of 1/01/06 and we have 30 days to do
something. So in column B Id like to show how many days left before the 30th
day. So Lets say todays 1/20/06 so column B should have 10 days left to
comply.

Thanks

I would suggest you set it out as follows-

Column A Column B Column C Column D
Source No (of days) Target Status
User input User =A2+B2
=IF(TODAY()C2,"Expired",C2-TODAY())

Regards.

Something like =A2+B2-NOW() which assumes your date in A2, number of days in
B2 - HTH
