Compare two Dates.

hi guyz! Currently, i have the code below

Code:

---

                if (dtpDate.Value.ToShortDateString != DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString)
                {
                  result = MessageBox.Show(this,"The date is not the date today.", "BCMD", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
                  MessageBox.Show(this, result.ToString ());
                }

---

but when try to run it it gives me an error saying "Operator '!=' cannot be applied to operands of type 'method group' and 'method group'". Can anybody please tell me what is the right way to compare two dates? thanks in advance!!!

Why not just use DateTime.Compare() method to compare the dates?

add () after ToShortDateString if you are using c#.

Yes, because what you're doing currently is comparing object methods. You need to add the argument list parentheses () to actually call the method and use its return value.

Note that you don't need to call that method at all, if all you want to do is compare the date values.

Thanks a lot bros!!!
