OMG I WAS STUCK FOR HOURS THANK YOU

[@shadaksharicr]

I happen to see videoo on your birthday...so. Happy Birthday to Kevin

[@michelemcarthur4393]

Absolutely fantastic! To the point and easy to understand. I'd like to see how you would calculate dates with exceptions. Formulas which calculate daily fees excluding a particular day and holidays.

[@aung2580]

I have been searching about calculation of probation period of a staff. Now, I've found it. You're the BEST teacher I've ever met. A million thanks to you.

[@muneca706ify]

Hi I like watching your videos they are very helpful, I need to know how to creat a list where the dates change automatically from week by week for a time sheet.

[@hadassahjosiah1360]

Thank you. You helped me.

[@amateurtorque6709]

Could do with an English version of this with DD/MM/YY please

So brilliant! Thank you!

How would you calculate, the average role length, if you had multiple roles and within each role you had multiple contracts with different start and end dates?

[@michellea.5741]

Hi there - Thank you for a great video! Question/request: I would like have the a date interval repeated 4 times the automaticall update. Is that possible? For example - I want the column to say 07/2/2023 - 07/08/2023 times 4 rows then update to the next week's interval.

[@infochippvtltd]

Hello In My Excel, I have two columns I have shared the data of my columns. Column1: 2023-07-24T06:44:03.000Z Column2: 2023-07-24T06:44:16.000Z How do I get these two columns different in "Seconds" Only?

[@wernichjoseph7217]

HI Kevin, thanks you very much for all your videos and help. I have a problem where I have a table with 2 date fields, date call was logged and then if closed the date it was closed. I want a dynamic line chart to show received date and resolved date. Currently I have 2 pivots, cope then together and do a line chart from there and it works fine but it very manual. Any suggestions perhaps?

[@Tesnobay]

Hi, in the cell for the date Toothbrush Installed, shouldn't the date be hard coded instead of =now(), because the date will change everyday you reopen it, and the formula below it will just add 90 to the new date?

[@KevinStratvert]

Yeah, that’s a good catch. I would start with =now() and then copy and paste the value.

[@EstherPang-t1o]

Hi Kevin, when I do the substraction, I do not get the answer in days, but instead in a date format such as 9/1/1900. Do you know why this might be the case and how to rectify?

[@birgerkagan6087]

Tried the Today() and Now() functions - both returned a "name"-error

[@rodneywood3399]

Hi Kevin Using Libre Calc not excel but much the same. If I have a column for days and have stopped the zero value showing can you put two formulas in a cell or column to avoid a result until the end date has been entered.

[@patrickpower3992]

Is there a workaround for starting dates that occur before 1900 aside from deleting the formula for those cells and entering in the number of years manually.

[@Angie-s3z]

@kevinstratvert Do you have a video about Datediff formula? The date diff calculates the months/ years between 2 dates, but i need to round it up. If I put in employee started on 1 July and end on 30 July it say worked 0 months. I need it to show worked 1 month. Please help

[@MakzyBeatz]

That is great how about after calculating for the dates you like to hav the results in date and not number need answers please getting the results in dates not number

[@carissainthecity]

Hi Kevin is there any way that it only counts weekdays in between two dates

[@prosperityfocus212]

Hi Kevin, you are an AMAZING instructor. I am new to excel and I'd like to know if I can use excel to create a software (what formula) to populate answers for predetermined data subjects. I am not sure if I explain correctly here but here's an example. Under the "Subject" data, I have "Non-Existence" with bullet points 1. DC, 2. NP (these letters stand for a paragraph). And then there will be a "Goal" and "Result" button. Under "Result", I want to calculate/bring specific answers bullet points from the "Subject" data based on the conditions under "Goal." I hope this means sense to you and thank you for your help.

How to calculate the difference between 2 date/time ranges in business days? For example, cell A2: 07-Jul-23 18:00hrs and B2: 09-Jul-23 10:00hrs The result in C2 should reflect "00 Days 06 Hours" since Saturday and Sunday must be completely excluded in the calculation. I tried all possible options including chat GPT but failed

[@sathapeer]

Hi I have a question? Like if we have to just calculate the no of calendar days from the start date to end date including the dates I am giving e.g start date is 24/02/2020 and the end date is 29/02/2020 typically if we calculate it on fingers it will come up with 6 days and if we give a simple formula (end-date - start date) it comes up with the answer 5 days. How can I calculate it with the correct number of days? Hope I am clear with my question if not, please reply so that I can elaborate further. Thanks

[@sathapeer]

Still waiting for a reply to my question

[@tamiboliveira]

Hi! Thank you for the informations. Can you help me calculate difference between more than 2 dates? For example, I have some hire with more than one date admission and I need sum those difference, to know when my employee complete work anniversary: First admission: 02-02-2000 to 06-29-2004, Second admission: 03-17-2006 to 04-10-2007 and third admission: 09-14-2008 to now . Thank You!

I have a set of dates, some dates are blank and give the 41148 number ( which is a date) I just want it to return "0" for those. How do you do that?

Calculate hire date till retirement date (future date), and subtract years before 2000? the first step. I've been playing with datedif(), countif() yearfrac() and they are not getting the results. can you please help. thank you

[@Kate98755]

is there a formula to find prior dates....eg-when to start a task 25 days prior to a due date

[@rtoedo627]

Do you have a good way to calculate age? For example: today - my birthday = age in years. Answer is in days and I usually divide by 365.25. The .25 to account for leap years.

[@KevinStratvert]

The following has a bunch of potential ways of calculating age: support.office.com/en-us/article/Calculate-age-113D599F-5FEA-448F-A4C3-268927911B37 Using the =YEARFRAC(,now()) function seems to work pretty well.

How to remove 44577 after do after deducted today() from any date I want

[@RobertLQEscortServiceWilliams]

How do I get the number of days between two days, counting the start date as day 1. Example 11/2/23 and 11/2/23 the formula gives you zero but I want it to count it as 1

[@rb2287]

This is the flaw with using the “days” function and/or subtracting one date from another; it yields the answer minus one. For example, 1/1/24 through 1/31/24 indicates “30” days which we know is wrong. So, do this to obtain the correct answer: “=days(date-date)+1” OR “=days(cell-cell)+1 OR “=(cell-cell)+1”. My insurance company fixed this by using the first day of the FOLLOWING month (1/1/24 through 2/1/24) which added that extra day, but is visually incorrect. Hope this helps.

It doesn't work is it different for UK date

Both the days of dates is to be counted. Say first of month 01-1-2023 to be counted till 25-01-2026

[@omprakashpoddar6756]

Total number of days should be 25 days without adding plus 1 day formula
