    Formula for today's date minus another date

    I need a numeric value for today's date minus july 1, 2013 so that every day I open the excel sheet, this value will be updated based on today's date. Is this possible to do in excel?

    thanks!

    Try =Today() to get today's date.

    Check out Excel's "Date and Time" function for more options

    hi Ocean. as mike mentioned, use TODAY. additionally, here's what you can input:
    =TODAY()-"1Jul2013"
    or:
    =TODAY()-DATE(2013,7,1)
    or refer to a cell where 1Jul2013 is:
    =TODAY()-A1

    format cells to General
