Just curious about this.
My Uncle is approaching his 100th Birthday, so I applied some formulae to work out how many days he'd been alive.
However, taking a Microsoft Help page on calculating differences in dates, they gave the following formula
So if I put 11/7/1918 in A2 and 11/7/2018 in B2 the result isPlease Login or Register to view this content.
100 years, 0 months, 10 days
Why the extra 10 days?
Even if it were something to do with leap years, it would be 25 days!?!
If I enter 30/5/1960 and 30/5/2018 respectively I get 58 years, 0 months, 29 days
Elsewhere, I've seen DATEDIF(A2,B2,"md") used for the days portion, so I'm just curious why MS used it differently and why the discrepancies.
