Default Number of days falling in various years

I am starting two dates in my example. The first is 6/20/02 and the
second is 1/15/2006. I need to calculate in separate columns for years
2001 through 2006 the number of day in this year that are between
these two dates. For example, in 2001, the answer is -, in 2002, the
answer is 194, and in years 2003 through 2005, the answer is 365, and
finally in 2006, the answer is 15 days.


The formula below almost works, but 2001 it came up with a negative
number.

=MIN(IF(DATE(O1,12,31)$K$2,0,MIN((DATE(O1,12,31)-$K$2),
365)),IF(DATE(O1,12,31)$J$2,MIN((DATE(O1,12,31)-$K$2),365),G2-
DATE(O1,1,1)+1))

Surely there is a function to handle this sort of thing.

Thanks,


Bruce
