Have you looked into using a TimeSpan?

 

[rcombs4]

    TextBox6.Text = CType(DateTimePicker2.Value-DateTimePicker3.Value,TimeSpan).ToString

I'm not sure on the correct property of the DateTimePicker but I imagine Value is it.

Have a look at the DTP class in help, ValueChanged event should catch your immediate attention, especially if you rule out the inherited events. Use the ValueChanged event.

Well, we told you to look at the TimeSpan object. When you subtract two dates it gives you a TimeSpan object.

Meaning:

DateTimePicker2.Value-DateTimePicker3.Value

will give you a TimeSpan Object. So you can then take that object and use its properties and dispay the appropriate data.

dim difference as TimeSpan = DateTimePicker2.Value-DateTimePicker3.Value
difference.Days
difference.Hours
difference.Minutes
difference.Seconds
difference.Ticks

DateDiff(DateInterval.Day, DateTimePicker2.Value, DateTimePicker3.Value)

Difference, in this case in days, between the two.
