Example
// Calculates the number of days passed since 01/01/1998
nbDays is int
nbDays = DateDifference("19980101", Today())
// Displays the result
Info(nbDays + " days passed")
Syntax
<Result> = DateDifference(<Start date> , <End date>)
<Result>: Integer
Number of days passed between two dates. This number of days results from the operation:
<End date> - <Start date>

The number of days is negative if <Start date> is after <End date>.
<Start date>: Character string or Date variable
Start date for the calculation in YYYYMMDD format (YYYY corresponds to the year, MM to the month and DD to the day).
<End date>: Character string or Date variable
End date for the calculation in YYYYMMDD format (YYYY corresponds to the year, MM to the month and DD to the day).
Remarks
The validity of dates passed in parameter is checked. A message is displayed if the date is invalid. The validity of a date can be checked by DateValid.
This function cannot be used to calculate the number of days between dates before October 14 1582 (the switch from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar will not be taken into account).
The storage format allows you to store dates from 01/01/0001 to 12/31/9999.
The calculations performed on dates by the WLanguage functions or by the WLanguage properties are accurate from January 1st 1583.
