if date in cell a1 of csv file stored 18/05/2015

assuming wish answer in cell c1 as

the difference of todays-date minus date in cell a1 -  try following formula  :

=today()-date(mid(a1,7,4)*1,mid(a1,4,2)*1,mid(a1,1,2)*1)

note: give answer in number of days , hence need format the

cell c1 either "general"  or "numeric-without-decimals"
