DATEDIFF(interval, date1, date2 [,firstdayofweek] [,firstweekofyear])

Returns the number of a given time interval between two specified dates (Long).


intervalThe interval of time you want to calculate (String):
"yyyy","YYYY" = year
"q","Q" = quarter
"m","M" = month
"y","Y" = day of year
"d","D" = day
"w","W" = weekday
"ww","WW" = week
"h","H" = hour
"n","N" = minute
"s","S" = second
date1The start date (Date).
date2The finish date (Date).
firstdayofweek(Optional) A vbDayOfWeek constant that specifies the first day of the week:
0 = vbUseSystemDayofWeek
1 = vbSunday (default)
2 = vbMonday
3 = vbTuesday
4 = vbWednesday
5 = vbThursday
6 = vbFriday
7 = vbSaturday
firstweekofyear(Optional) A vbFirstWeekOfYear constant that specifies the first week of the year:
0 = vbUseSystem
1 = vbFirstJan1 (default)
2 = vbFirstFourDays
3 = vbFirstFullWeek

REMARKS
* If "date1" or "date2" are enclosed in double quotation marks and the year is not entered then the current year is used.
* If "date1" > "date2" then a negative number is returned.
* If "firstdayofweek" is left blank, then 1 is used (ie Sunday).
* If "firstweekofyear" is left blank, then the first week is assumed to be the week in which January 1 occurs.
* The "firstdayofweek" is only relevant if the "interval" is either "w" or "ww".
* This function can be used to determine how many specified time intervals exist between two dates.
* You can use the DATEDADD function to return the date with a specified time interval added.
* You can use the DATEPART function to return the specified part of a given date.
* The equivalent .NET function is Microsoft.VisualBasic.DateAndTime.DateDiff

Debug.Print DateDiff("d",Date(), "31/12/2004",2,0) = ?? 
Debug.Print DateDiff("yyyy","31 Dec 2003","1 Jan 2004") = 1 ?? 
Debug.Print DateDiff("d", #12/1/2001#, #12/1/2000#, 0, 0) =   '2000 is a leap year so Feb has 28 days
