Hello:
I was hoping that this formula is plausible. In A1 there is a date
14/04/2010, what I am looking for in B1 is a forumla that will tell how many
months are remining from today's date.
A1 B1
01/04/2010 36
Thank you
Dimitri

You can use the DATEDIF function, as Chip Pearson describes on his web
site here:
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/datedif.aspx
DATEDIF is only described in Excel Help for XL 2000, though it is a
native function in all versions.
Hope this helps.

Hi Dimitri
Try this =(A1-TODAY())/12 and format cell as "General"

Are you sure? 12 days in a month? This gives 62 months for the example
quoted, whereas it should presumably be 24 months (and not the 36 quoted by
the OP). DATEDIF seems the appropriate answer.
