DateTimePicker

[joe_pool_is]

Does anyone know how to add and subtract values from DateTimePicker controls? I can't find anything on it in the VS.NET help.

 

One set on a form I'm working with has the dtpCompleteDate1 and 2 (Tuesday, January 1, 2000), and the other set uses dtpTimeOnly1 and 2 (06:00).

 

In the perfect world, I could just subtract dtpCompleteDate2 - dtpCompleteDate1 and use the resulting number of days, or subtract dtpTimeOnly2 - dtpTimeOnly1 and get an integer number representing the total number of hours.

 

Is anyone good at this? Any place you could point me, or anything you could share?

Something like

TimeSpan ts = dtpCompleteDate2.Value-dtpCompleteDate1.Value;
MessageBox.Show(ts.Days.ToString());

or

Dim ts As TimeSpan
ts = dtpCompleteDate2.Value.Subtract(dtpCompleteDate2.Value)
MessageBox.Show(ts.Days)

should do the trick
