Thank you
To calculate the difference in days, use the DATEDIF function as shown in the following formula:
=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"d")

A2 - Start date
b2 - end date

Say "Thank you" 68

A few words of thanks would be greatly appreciated. Add comment

Thron: You can use a sumproduct for that
=SUMPRODUCT((C1:C19="Female") * (A1:A19="x") *1)

Hi.

To count the number of days in a range is very simple.

Eg: I want to count the number of days between 1/1/9 and 22/4/9


If cell A1 is start date (1/1/9), and cell B1 is end date (22/4/9), and the result will appear in cell C1, then the formula in C1 is simply = B1-A1

But, the trick is, you have to format cell C1 to be a General Number with no decimals, otherwise is just returns another date format response. Result in this example is 111 days.

Hope this helps.

Thank you
using =networkdays("range") will exclude weekends. to exclude holidays, you must create a list of holidays, name this list and reference it in the network days formula... =networkdays(A1:A2, holidays)

How about if you want to include the weekends, for example 01/03/2016 - 31/03/2016 the sum should be 31 days?
