I would like to calculate two dates and get the result in days and/or
months. Can someone advise the syntax to get it.

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott

Let's say A1 is your first date '1.Nov 2007
A2 is your second date '14.Nov 2007

you want to have the number of days in B1:
=A2-A1
Format the cell as general, it returns 13

you want to have the number of months in B2:
=month(A2-A1) + (year(A2-A1)-1900)*12

you want to have the numbers of days, without months
=day(A2-A1)

For number of months you may find =DATEDIF(A1,A2,"m") easier than Carlo's
formula.
