Default Calculating days between dates and leap years

Hi
I have a "from" date in col A and a "to" date in Col B
In Col C, I'm using the following formula to find the days between the two
dates in A and B.

=B8-A8

Is there something I can add to this formula to add one day to the answer in
col C ....if it's a leap year.

For example, if I have 1/1/05 in A8 and 12/31/05 in B8, the answer is
364...and I need it to be the full year of 365 days.

Not sure how to adjust the formula for leap year or if that is possible..
Thanks in advance for you help..
Kimberly

Since when has 2005 been a leap year? In a (true) leap year, you will get
365.

Becasue... when I enter 1/1/05 to 12/31/05 (I'm calc. the days worked by
employees)... this should be a full year of 365 days that they worked ...and
it comes up to 364 days.....

SO they work every day, no weekends off, no bank holidays or leave?

You might want to check NETWORKDAYS from the Analysis Toolpak which
calculates working days between two dates (and includes both dates)
