Several years ago Kobayashi Software released a small utility,
DateDiff, for calculating the difference in days between two dates. It
was written as an in-house tool to assist in manual testing of interest
calculations, and released as freeware almost as an afterthought.
It was quite surprising, then, when DateDiff proved to be popular,
receiving several dozen downloads each month. I suspect a lot of people
are using it to count down the days until they can retire
Recently I received a few requests for new features, which I've
implemented. I'm pleased to announce version 2.0 of DateDiff is now
available. It is, of course, still freeware.
DateDiff can calculate the number of days between any two dates. As of
this new version, it can also determine the date X days before or after
a given date.
Other changes in version 2.0:
- Overhauled interface
- Improved calendar controls
- Jump directly to month (click on month name in calendars)
- Fast scroll through years (click on year)
- Week of year displayed in left column on calendars
- Date and plus/minus values restored from last session
