I scarcely ever use spreadsheets and then mainly for add-ups, take-aways, goesintos, and how many's.

I am grading assignments. There is a 5 percent penalty per day for late submission. So I want to subtract the deadline date from the actual submission date, and if the answer is positive, calculate 5 percent of the grade and subtract that value from the grade.

I can do most of it if I drink a gin or two. But the tricky bit is "So I want to subtract the deadline date from the actual submission date, and if the answer is positive". Can anyone tell me how to do a conditional branch on the result of the subtraction (or take-away, for those of you who only understand the higher maths)?

Regards,
Hedley
