need help with vb.net code for date/time 1

[maac74]

hello all, I'm a newbie at this. But anyways, I'm trying to figure out how to get a textbox to display the number of days between dates. I got 2 date time pickers on the vb.net app named dtpstartdate and dtpenddate. Now lets say I choose the start day as today, then choose the end date 3 days from now. I need to figure out the code to get the number of days between the dates displyed in the textbox. any help would be appreciated.

You could try something like:

  Private Sub dtpStartDate_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dtpStartDate.ValueChanged

    TextBox3.Text = DateDiff(DateInterval.Day, dtpStartDate.Value, dtpEndDate.Value).ToString

  End Sub

  Private Sub dtpEndDate_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dtpEndDate.ValueChanged

    TextBox3.Text = DateDiff(DateInterval.Day, dtpStartDate.Value, dtpEndDate.Value).ToString

  End Sub

or using a single handler

  Private Sub dtpStartEndDate_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dtpStartDate.ValueChanged, dtpEndDate.ValueChanged

    TextBox3.Text = DateDiff(DateInterval.Day, dtpStartDate.Value, dtpEndDate.Value).ToString

  End Sub

Hope this helps.
