You can do it with excell by doing the following:

1. enter old date at one cell.

2. enter the newest date at another cell.

3. minus the old date from the newest date and you will get the difference in dates.

this formula calculate all date

you can use NETWORKDAYS.INTL formula to calculate just worke days between tow date 

NETWORKDAYS.INTL(Start Date,End Date,[Weekend],[Holidays])

not this formula in Excel2010
