Date Examples
Using the
:
key, you can quickly solve common real estate date
problems: escrow or closing dates, listing expiration dates, and the
number of days prepaid interest, etc. You enter a date as follows:
Numerical Month
:
, Numerical Day
:
and two-digit Numerical Year.
The date function lets you: 1) add a number of days to a date to find
a second date (in the future), 2) subtract a number of days from a
date to find a second date (in the past), and, 3) subtract one date from
another date to find the number of days in between. For example, if a
45-day escrow begins April 27, 2007, what is the closing date and day?
