This information is great for calculating the length of service now I need
help with the second part of my question which is:

IF Statement would be If 0-60 months 8 Hours accrued each month, if
61-120 months 10 hours accrued each month, If 121-180 months 12 hours
accrued each month, if more than 181 months then 14 hours accrued each
month. When I try to put in an argument I get an error message.

**This accrual amount for each month must be used in the monthly column if
the worksheet for that month has 100% for the hours worked in cell C02 of
each month.

i.e.,:

Column A Column B
(Month) (Earned)**
JULY-08 ________ (see the description above)
AUG-08
SEPT-08
OCT-08
NOV-08

I need to be able to input a beginning employment date, i.e., 10/12/1994
and
calculate the number of months between this date and the current date to
determine the amount of vacation earned per month to be used in an IF
formula.

EXAMPLE: Start Date 06/13/85 current date 04/9/09 = How Many Months
IF Statement would be If 0-60 months 8 Hours accrued each month, if
61-120
months 10 hours accrued each month, If 121-180 months 12 hours accrued
each
month.
