Date Diff

[mike60smart]

Hi Everyone

I need to calculate the number of Days between 2 dates.

StartDate and TermDate

I know how to use the DateDiff Function

=DateDiff("d",[StartDate],[TermDate])

How would I cater for the TermDate being Black and If it is Blank then use the Current Date.
Any help appreciated.

Use an NZ around the TermDate?

First, always put the later date first in DateDiff unless it is OK to come out with negative numbers.

Second, this would also work: = FIX( NZ( [TermDate], Date() ) - NZ( [StartDate], Date() ) )

And my usage also shows you how to use NZ and the current date.
