Days between two dates

[sarpomira]

Hello,

I'm trying to determine the "date difference" in days between the current day and a future date selected in a Gambas "DateBox" control.
Can anyone offer the proper syntax for comparing / subtracting two dates?

Thanks kindly in advance

Dim SomeDate As Date
SomeDate = GetFutureDate()

Print DateDiff(Now, SomeDate, gb.Day)

...... date selected in a Gambas "DateBox" control.

In this case you need two DateBoxes.
Specifically you need to use their ".Value" Property, perhaps setting the date manually.

Public Sub Button1_Click()
 
 Print DateBox2.Value - DateBox1.Value
 
End
