Hi Group,

Coming from a VB background I am looking for the quickest path to do a date
diff in C#. I see that C# has no date diff function so this must be more
obvious than it looks.

Thanks

What's the difference between a "date diff" and thisDate - thatDate?

A,

It is =)

If you have two variables of type DateTime, you can do this:

// The first date.
DateTime pdatStart = DateTime.Now;

// Wait for two seconds.
Thread.Sleep(2000);

// Get the time.
DateTime pdatEnd = DateTime.Now;

// Get the difference.
TimeSpan pobjDifference = pdatEnd - pdatStart;

The TimeSpan class is used to handle differences in datetime values.

Hope this helps.

Look in the help file for "DateTime Structure" and "TimeSpan
Structure".

Hi

Based on my understanding, you want to do "date diff" in C#.
Actully, all .Net languages use the .Net class library to do operations.
So you can refer to .Net structure DateTime and TimeSpan. It is not the
feature of C#, but included in the .Net class library which can also be
used by VB.net etc.

Would you mind having a look at my pose "UCOMIMoniker.BindToObject"? I'm
desperately seeking a solution and no one seems to know just how this
method works.
