Date Range & Difference
=DATEDIF(A1,A2,"M")
gives 11 because it is whole months. You need to make a decision when a part month is counted and when it is not, for intance does 12/12 count, or 8/1 to 20/12? -- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "pm_arrow" wrote in message ...
