Calculating Pay periods

[PRQueen]

I am trying to determine the number of pay periods an employee worked during the year if he/she was either hired or terminated during the course of the year.

The columns I have are:

The formula I currently have in the #Pay Periods column is:

=IF(AND(B7="Y",C7=0,D7=0),26,0)

However, I would like to nest/embed a formula in place of the "otherwise" value that would calculate the difference (in number of calendar days) in the hire/termination date and the beginning/end of the year date, and divide the product by the number of pay periods in a year (26).

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The 3/26/2010 date should be under the Date of Termination (DOT) column. After it posted, it respaced my columns. Thanks again!
