comparing Dates......Argh.....HELP

[karen17]

ooh no....

i really don't wish to post this message but i really had no choice.

I have been working on my date compare for almost a day, but i still can't get it working.

I was trying to get two dates and validate that they must be within a fixed range.

Wonder if anyone can help mi solve this.

Thanks!

Karen17,
In VB6 I used an operator that allowed me to do this and they've carried it along into VB .NET. Try this
If DateDif(whatever you need bla bla here) > yourAllowedWindow Then
Do something
Else
Do something else.
End If

The DateDiff operator is the key, unfortunately I don't know much about it in .NET as my help is not working (see my previous post).

Hope this helps!
