Default Date Calculation from a Due Date

Many thanks Sebastienm for your suggestion. I'm afraid though, that I do not
have 2 dates. I have only 1 column with a date within which a project
requires to be completed. That is, once Contracts are signed, there could
have a period of 24 months, 18 months or even 6 months for completion.
Therefore, each month I need to submit a report showing the number of months
remaining for each contract.

Hi,

To get the number of days, just substract the two dates and format the cell
as number:
Say the dates are in A3 and A2
In A4: = A3 - A1
Now, format A4 as regular number -- this is the number of days.

So determining the number of days is easy. However to determine the number
of Month/Day, not sure how to get there easily.

Hi all,
I have a project table with due date in cell A4. In cell A5, I require to
have it calculate, the number of days/months remaining till the Due Date.

I haven't been able to find the answer by Googling. There are solutions for
calculations between 2 dates and so on.

Your advise would be very much appreciated, as I require to prepared this by
the end of this week.

Many thanks in advance.

Prabha
