    Using Gantt chart / date subtractions

    Hi I'm having a little issue.


    So I have 4 columns: actual duration (day), actual start (date), budget start (date) and end date (date).

    I need to find a formula to find the actual duration based on the three dates.
    For example:

    Actual Duration Actual Start Budget Start End Date
    ? 1/1/10 5/1/10 12/1/10

    The formula MUST contain the 3 dates.


    Thanks.

    Hi Rita,

    Welcome to the forum.

    Would it not be :-
    Actual Duration = End Date - Actual Start

    If you need to include the Budget Start as well then we can take the Earlier date between Budget Start and Actual Start as :-

    Actual Duration = End Date - Min(Actual Start, Budget Start)

    Thanks.
