Simple Date Calc Problem

[Jscott]

ok, I am sure that question has been asked a billion times and there are probably a billion threads on the subject. I searched, I PROMISE, so please don't slam me too hard if I violated the Thread Rule.

I need to know the difference in days only between two dates. I would like to have a positive # regardless if Datefield 1 is older or newer than Datefield 2.

Thoughts? And again, I apologize if I should not have posted this question.

Thanks

If(

Date1 > Date2;

// Then

Date1 - Date2;

// Else

Date2 - Date1

)

or simply

Abs(Date1 - Date2)
