Subtracting dates in Project 2007

[taylok11]

I'd like to subtract today's date from a task finish date to determine the number of days left to complete that task at a glance. I can do this but the result is some cryptic number instead of just whole days. Any suggestions?

Create a new custom number field and subtract the finish date from the current date using ProjDateDiff() or DateDiff(). You can also refer to the Help button placed on the pages under Menu: Tools/Customize/Fields. It will guide you in a much better way.
