Im looking for a vb.net code to find out the difference between two dates.Im looking for something like this:
Textbox1.text = Now - DateTimePicker1.value
For Example: If
Now = Nov 23, 2010 09:30:00AM
DateTimePicker1.value = Nov 22, 2010
I should get Textbox1.text = difference in this format (days, hours, minutes)
I'm trying to write a program which compares the difference between any date in the past and the system date, showing how many days have elapsed since that date.This is what I've got so far:
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
End Sub
[code]....
That's what it looks like so far. I was wondering how you can automate the top label so it automatically comes up with the date when the program is run.Plus, I need to know how to display the dates difference (how many days have elapsed between the system date and the user's chosen date) in the bottom label.
How do I calculate relative time?How do I calculate someone's age in C#? Anyone know how of a function in VB.NET or C# that will take two dates, calculate the difference and output that difference in an english string? For example if I pass the dates '3/10/2009' and '3/25/2009', the function would return the string "15 Days" or if I pass the dates '3/10/2005' and '3/15/2007', the function would return "2 Years, 5 days"
View 3 RepliesI'd like do make a program which returns you how old you are, in years, months, weeks and days. But I didn't get it to compare different times. Input is a string which looks like 01.01.2011 (dd.mm.yyyy).
My code so far is this:
Try
dim date1 as string = '01.01.2011'
' Today
Dim date2 As Date
date2 = Date.Now
' number of seconds since date1

View 6 RepliesI have a date value (e.g. 2011-04-11 07:45:00.000) which I am pulling from my database (via Entity Framework). I need to pull out only the hour from the original date value (e.g. 07:45:00), get the current time, and then subtract the current time from the database time value. In pseudo-code, I'm looking to do something like this:
Dim my_date as DateTime = from_db ' This is the value pulled from the database.Dim this_date as DateTime = Date.Now ' This is pulled via a VB.NET function.Dim my_hour = my_date_but_only_hours ' Somehow, I need to strip the date off the my_date Dim this_hour = this_date_but_only_hours ' Same as line above.Dim hour_difference = my_hour - this_hour Response.Write("There are " & hour_difference & " hours left before the time runs out.")
Ok so i have a date time picker that holds a date that was entered by a user. My program works fine when ran on a computer using English(US) regional settings, but when i take it to a computer running any other regional settings, I.E. English(UK), which is the 2nd most common regional settings that will find its way to this program, I recieve an error because the Date format is backwards. What i'm curious about is how can i grab the system Regional Date format in order to rearrange my Date to fix its context?
I know that since the date is stored as a string i'm going to do something along the lines of this to break it apart:
Dim temp()
temp = Split(inputarray(7), "/")
inputarray(7) = temp(1) & "/" & temp(0) & "/" & temp(2)
i am almost 100% sure the above code will take a date in MM/DD/YYYY format and rearrange it to DD/MM/YYYY format.
I have two date time pickers , namely "Date_of_ReturnDateTimePicker" and "Date_of_IssueDateTimePicker". Now, what i want to do is, that when i press the "total" button, the value of issue date should be deducted from the return date value, and the difference in days should be put in a textbox.
View 2 RepliesI need to return the exact difference between two dates in the form of a string. If the dates are 01-FEB-2012 and 01-FEB-2014, the function should return "2 years" If the dates are 01-FEB-2012 and 01-MAR-2014, the function should return "25 months". If the difference is not in exact years or months, it should return the difference in days. I do not want to use DateDiff from the Visual Basic namespace so the code is portable to C#.
View 1 Replieshow to get the time difference between 2 date & times Where
from_time falls >= 22:00 of the From_date & the to_time falls <= 06 of the To_Date
for example:
From_Date = 01/01/2011 20:00 ' Where Work Started
To_Date = 02/01/2011 08:00 'Where Work Ended
Time_Covered_Between_22TO06_As_Night = 22:00 to 06:00 is 08:00 hrs How to equate it?
In VB2005 I am trying to calculate the number of business days between two dates. I must also account for U.S. holidays (New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day/Friday after, Christmas Day). If a holiday falls on a Saturday, then the prior day (Friday) is assumed to be a holiday. Likewise, if the holiday falls on a Sunday then the following day (Monday) is assumed to be a holiday.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to flag rows in a grid in the following order based on a date column
When 2 or more days old from today
then RED
When 1 day old then YELLOW
When 0 days old then GREEN
When the date is in the future then
BLUE
I have the following which is working fine except for the future dates which are GREEN instead of BLUE.
Dim myDate As DateTime = CType(grdSummaryView.GetRowCellValue(e.RowHandle, "myDate"), DateTime)
Select Case Now.Subtract(myDate).Days
'2 or more days old then RED FLAG

Title pretty much says it all. How do I format the date of a dateandtimepicker to insert it into the SQL date datatype?
View 20 Replieshow I can ensure that conversion of a date to a string and a string to a date will give me the same date format.

Code:

Dim d As Date = Date.Now

I have a date time as a string, eg. "2010-08-02", I'm trying to convert it to UTC with the following code snippet..DateTime.ParseExact("2010-08-02Z", "yyyy-MM-ddZ", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)When I print to the console, I get the following: 8/1/2010 5:00:00 PM.Is there a reason why the date shows up as the date before the date I'm trying to parse? I could just add a day to this to advance to the original day.
View 3 RepliesI'm fairly new to ASP.NET & VB.I've been asked to take an existing textbox that is automatically filled with the current date and allow the user to either add a "+" or "-" and a number or a spcific number and convert that into a date.I underdstand the basic concept on how to do this, but I'm running into some problems using the proper commands in order for this to work.The Textbox is called txtDate.What I've tried to do is this:
If txtDate = '+' Or '-' Then

View 16 RepliesI am attempting to import data in a batch from an Excel Worksheet to a Sql Server database. Everything works except for the one date field in the spreadsheet. The date returned is off by four years from the value in the spreadsheet. Example: The Excel sheet has a date 10/24/2010 14:18, but when I look at the column in my query, the date is 10/23/2006 2:18. This pattern, 4 years and 1 day earlier, is repeated for every row in the worksheet.
The Excel column comes to me as a custom type, formatted m/d/yyyy h:mm. I receive this from an outside vendor and having them change the column is not going to be my simplest solution.
For what it's worth, the relevent part of the query is:
Select [Date Created] From MyWorksheet

I can do this on the SQL side or the code side. I have Linq at my disposal if I need it. The table doesn't need to be compiled by SQL. This will happen dynamically on a website and should be as efficient as possible.I don't want to have to iterate through each and look for breaks in contiguous days if I don't have to.
Would it be possible to search a table, confining to a specific date range based on a date-time column, and get a count of the 10 most used words in a particular var-char column excluding a list of words?All in SQL?Currently I am pulling out the records that match and sorting through the contents outside of SQL, I would think where I can do it directly on the server it would be more efficient.(SQL 2008)

When user stores a record, I need to make sure dates don't overlap.My simple code checks date ranges within a specific record (e.g. user enters 9/16/2011 or 10/21/2011, I throw an exception.)But, on the slim chance a user gets creative (e.g. 10/14/2011 - 10/23/2011 or even 10/14/2011 to 11/16/2011), now they have circumvented my check.BTW, the user could enter 10/14/2011 to 10/23/2011 if they were editing the record that contained values 10/15/2011 - 10/22/2011.So, I'm trying to solve this riddle with a linq query. However, what I have isn't working exactly right.
