You are cross posting - posting the same question in two forums.

I will ask the same question I posted in the Office forum. Have you looked in Help?

The answer to the question, can Word subtract two dates and display the difference?

Yes, it can.

"Yes" was not wuit the answer I was looking for !!

Appologies for cross posting.

And by the time you read this I would have looked in "Help" again.

Thanks

You may want to look at the my reply to your other post.

I can not see why "Yes" is not the answer you are looking for. You asked a specific question - can Word subtract dates. The answer is...as stated...Yes. What is the problem with the answer? The answer is Yes, it can.

You did not ask HOW it does.
You did not ask for any tips for doing so.
You did not give any explanation as to your situation.
You did not give any explanation as to what you have tried to do so far, and what was the problem with what. In any case,

You simply asked if it could. The answer is ...yes.

I am NOT trying to give you a hard time. As I posted in the other thread...try something, tell us exactly what you tried - give details. If there is something you missed, I (and certainly others as well) will be happy to suggest some solution. Dates are pretty basic and everybody needs to know how to use them. Give it a shot and post what you have problems with.

Oh well, nothing a new post asking the same thing won't fix.

Sigh.
