Ups Sorry, try this

=IF($B2>$C2,"Error Input",IF(TEXT(D$1,"ymm")=TEXT($B2,"ymm"),IF(TEXT(D$1,"ymm")=TEXT($C2,"ymm"),$C2-1,D$1)-$B2+1,IF(TEXT(D$1,"ymm")=TEXT($C2,"ymm"),DAY($C2)-1,IF(AND(TEXT(D$1,"ymm")>TEXT($B2,"ymm"),TEXT(D$1,"ymm")<TEXT($C2,"ymm")),DAY(D$1),0))))

Excel attached

Dear De Premor,

Thank you for giving it a try! It works well but with only one glitch! The formula will be used to count the number of nights spent and your formula counts the number of days!

Eg: Date of Arrival: 30 March 2013; Date of Departure: 04 April 2013. That makes a total of 5 nights; 2 nights to go into Mar-13 column and 3 nights to go into Apr-13 Column.

If you could fix this for me, I'll have the PERFECT formula for the job! Thank you again!

    Hi Vabz,

    Thank you very much for looking into my problem! Your solution
    works fine when the Date of Arrival and Date of Departure spans
    over 2 consecutive months but I get an error in cases where the
    Date of Arrival and the Date of Departure are in the same month
    (eg: Arrival on 24-01-13 and Departure on 30-01-13).

    Is there a way to twist the formula to account for this issue?

            Hi all,

            I have a worksheet that need to allocate the number of
            nights spent by a guest in the relevant Columns designed
            for the purpose. I can't seem to find the right formula
            to do this.

            Here is a brief of the situation and the problem that
            need to be solved: Column B has the Date of Arrival (say,
            29 July 2012) and Column C has the Date of Departure
            (say, 03 August 2012). That makes a total of 5 nights
            spent (3 nights in July 2012 and 2 nights in August 2012).

            Columns D onwards have headers like Jul-12, Aug-12,
            Sept-12,.....June-13. (ie; July 2012 till June 2013). I
            need to formula for cell D2 whereby when I drag the
            formula across that row, it will automatically fill cells
            related to Column Jul-12 by 3 and the one related to
            Aug-12 by 2.

            Thank you for helping! --
