Ignoring Time in a Date Time Calculation
 

I am being provided data with a date/time stamp where I want to calculate if
there is a difference between two dates, but ignore the time. Example: in
cell A2 I have 11/22/2005 0:00 and in cell B2 I have 11/22/2005 12:00 and my
current formula is IF(B2A2,1,0) and it is giving me a result of 1. I want
the formula to ignore the time and give me a result of 0 because the dates
are the same. I already tried just reformating A2 and B2, but that did not
work. The time data is still there in the background.

Thanks!

Try

=DATEDIF(A1,A2,"d")

You can use

IF(INT(B2)INT(A2),1,0)
