In VB you can just use the DateDiff function, in C# use the TimeSpan
structure.

I added

"Imports System.DateTime" to my vb file, but keep getting error on
"datediff" when I try to compile ?

DateDiff is a function in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace.

Oh and System.DateTime is a structure, not a namespace.

that worked

thanks
