If Column B is blank, Column C return 0.0
Is there a way to add an =IF function to the =MAX function to use today's date and time to calculate for Column C if Column B is blank? Thanks!

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
=if( B2="",Max(0, Now()-A2) ,Max(0,B2-A2) )
replaces your blank B
various ways to that , I just took the mAX vlaue at face value rather then look at other ways
