Using the YEARFRAC function I get the same number and decimal. You can
ROUND up or down from there

=ROUND(YEARFRAC(DATE1,DATE2,0),0) for a whole year solution.

To give a number and text answer my solution is a bit ugle but it
workds for me.

..~=ROUNDDOWN(YEARFRAC(W5408,W5409,0),0)&" Years
"&ROUND((YEARFRAC(W5408,W5409,0)-ROUNDDOWN(YEARFRAC(W5408,W5409,0),
0))*12,0)&" Months"

It rounds down the 11.84 to 11 (for the year value), and the subtracts
11 from the 11,84, muliplies by 12 for the number of months and rounds
that number up. Not pretty but it works.

Answer will be: 11 Years 10 Months

You have a typo or two in your description but try this.

June 30, 2010 in A1

September 1, 1998 in A3

In a cell enter

=DATEDIF(A3,A1,"y")&" years, "&DATEDIF(A3,A1,"ym")&" months, " &
DATEDIF(A3,A1,"md") & " days"

Returns 11 years, 9 months, 29 days

Where you get the 21 years 10 months is a mystery to me.
