I'm trying to compare the modify date of a file vs the current system date. I've found an MSDN article describing how to get the modify time of a file:
Dim infoReader As System.IO.FileInfo
infoReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo("C: estfile.txt")
MsgBox("File was last modified on " & infoReader.LastWriteTime)
This gest the Date and Time, but I want just the Date not the time.

View 2 RepliesI need to compare the date that is entered with today's date minus some number of work days.
I used dateinterval.day, but that is the actual day, not the work day. i don't see a "simple" way to get work days.
For example, my number is 3, so i want 3 work days (M-F) not 3 days.

View 3 Repliesi have 2 datetimepicker which are startdatedatetimepicker and enddatedatetimepicker.. the start date should not be more than end date..thus i need to check these two date.. here is my code...
[Code]...
i have three portions of my question?
1) does datetimepicker picks up the current date of system automatically or not?
2) if it picks up so it does not show the current date to me on my form? why is it so?
I'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
DateAdd("d", txtDate, today)
End If
Here is what the whole thing looks like:

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.

I have a date in the future e.g. 13/10/2008 I need to subtract the current date (today is the 28/09/2010) minus 7 days, so thats 21/09/2010 minus 13/10/2008, which would equal erm, 720 something ? But the current date won't always be 28/09/2010, obviously. I need the code for this. EDIT: When i said future I mean past :)
