Months converted to decimal can have various definitions, it ususally is
15 days, but in february can be 14, and january, march,... 15.5

You can get an aceptable value using the difference y days divided by 30
or 30.5

Is there a way to get the number of months in a numeric value with decimal values? So if it 1.6 months between two dates. I'm trying to mimic something someone is doing in Crystal Reports and it returns a partial month. This is what I'm currently using.

DateDiff = %diff(Date1 : Date2 : *Months);
