Hello,

I am beating my head against the wall. I am attempting to create a
calculated field in a PivotTable with a formula like so:

=IF(myDate 0, 1, 2)

myDate being a field name from the field name list for the Pivot
Table. It is available from the field list in the Insert Calculated
Field dialog box. When I select it, it is added to the formula with
single quotes. I have followed the syntax I have found on the web as
well as in the QUE book "Using Microsoft off Excel 2007". Nothing
seems to work. It seems so simple.

Ultimately I need a formula that looks for blank fields and with a
little logic, determine a step in a process and the number of days
stuck at the process. The data is coming from a SharePoint list.

Please let me know if I am going about this the wrong way. I have been
at it for three days and all over the web trying to figure it out.

The bottom line is that I want to say:

If this field value is blank, then give me the number of days between
datefield1 and datefield2.

Please assist. Any and all help is so appreciated!
