DateDiff for time

[jamie_pattison]

Is it possible to use DateDiff to find the difference between time?

I have two time periods i.e. 05:00 and 05:10pm so i would like to run some code if the time is between the two specified periods. Ive searched around and i think DateDiff could do this but unsure?

Thanks

DateDiff Function (Visual Basic)
If you scroll down to the settings bit then you can see what options you have about what intervals you can test against

There's no need to use DateDiff whether it can do it or not. Both the DateTime and TimeSpan data types support mathematical operations so you can perform comaprisons, subtractions, etc. E.g. if you want to see if the current time is between 17:00 and 17:10

Dim startTime As New TimeSpan(17, 0, 0)
Dim endTime As New TimeSpan(17, 10, 0)
Dim currentTime As TimeSpan = Date.Now.TimeOfDay

If currentTime >= startTime AndAlso currentTime <= endTime Then
    'We are within the time interval.
End If
