Hi,
How can i find the duration (No. of days) between two days.

ex. (10/20/2006 to 10/31/2006)

Thx & Regards,
 
Hi

Just take the earlier data away from the later date.
="10/31/2006"-"10/20/2006"
or with dates in A1 10/20/2006 and B1 10/31/2006
=B1-A1

Add 1 to the result if you want to include the whole of the 20th and the
whole of the 31st.
Format the cell with your formula as Format>Cells>General.
 
Thanks Roger
Its working fine.
Also i want to add days to any date.
e.g. (adding 5days to 10/20/2006 i.e it should be 10/25/2006)

Thx again,
 
Simply use the plus sign to add. If 10/20/2006 is in A1, use:

=a1+5

to get 10/25/2006.
