    Dates and blanks - please help

    Hi,

    I have worked out how to calculate the amount of days between cell A1 and A2. But if A2 is blank, how do I get A3 to show as blank?

    Any help, much appreciated.

    Re: Dates and blanks - please help

    Thank you, but I must be going wrong somewhere.
    I have entered the formula as follows:-

    =IF(G3="","",TODAY()-E3)

    Basically, in column H, I need the number of days between E and G.
    If there is nothing in G, I need the number if days between E and Today.

    I really appreciate you help on this, please see attachment. I think I've done as you said???

    Another quick question, please.

    I need K to show days from column I until today, if column I is empty, then it should be blank. I hope that makes sense. I have attached a picture for you.

    That is the last question, I promise!!
