Hi

Either use
=DATE(2006,9,30)-A1
or
=--"30/09/2006"-A1
the double unary minus -- forces the text value to be a date value.

Hi,

Put 30/09/2006 in Cell A2. Put the formula =A2-A1+1 in Cell A3 and format
the cell as number.

One way ..
Assuming A1 houses a real date,
Try it in B1 as: = --"30/09/2006"-A1
Format B1 as general or number
