<h1>DAYS360 Function</h1>
<p>The <b>DAYS360</b> function is one of the date and time functions. Is used to return the number of days between two dates (start-date and end-date) based on a 360-day year using one of the calculation method (US or European).</p>
<p>The <b>DAYS360</b> function syntax is:</p>
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>DAYS360(start-date, end-date [,method-flag])</em></b></p>
<p><em>where</em></p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>start-date</em></b> and <b><em>end-date</em></b> are two dates you wish to calculate the number of days between.</p>
<p style="text-indent: 50px;"><b><em>method-flag</em></b> is an optional logical value: <b>TRUE</b> or <b>FALSE</b>. If it is set to <b>TRUE</b>, the calculation will be performed using the European method, according to which the start and end dates that occur on the 31st of a month become equal to the 30th of the same month.<br />
If it is <b>FALSE</b> or omitted, the calculation will be performed using the US method, according to which if the start date is the last day of a month, it becomes equal to the 30th of the same month. If the end date is the last day of a month and the start date is earlier than the 30th of a month, the end date becomes equal to the 1st of the next month. Otherwise the end date becomes equal to the 30th of the same month.
