Hi All,
The big green guy here, just wanted to let you all know that we now have the reputation system in place, the reputation system allows you to give a visible pat on the back to those that have helped you or whose information has been helpful.

You will see an icon in every post (Light Blue scales), click this to give the reputation point to whom you think deserves it, a green square appears for a reputation with more and more adding over time.Pretty soon you will see a string of green squares appear in the top right of your posts as your reputation grows and your forum presence!

Good Luck!
The Hulkster!

Total days outstanding formula

I did a fairly quick search and didn't see anything posted on this in the forum so please don't shoot me if this has already been asked.

I need a formula that shows the total days an activity has been outstanding.

i.e.

If a task was given on 11/05/07 and today is 11/07/07, the activity is 2 days outstanding.

It looks something like this, but obviously in excel format;

Today's date: 11/07/07

Location - Roof
Discipline - Roof Subcontractor
Description - Patch small hole
Assigned Date - 11/05/07
Days outstanding - 2

Hi ballard,

Maybe

Today's date - Assigned date

in formula assuming Assigned date in cell A7 and Today's date in cell A1

Days outstanding (A8) =A1-A7 'format cell to General

This may be pushing my luck, but how do I make it so the current date always updates when the spreadsheet is opened?
