Subject: Difference between dates and now, and between dates
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 1996 15:58:56 +0100 (GMT+0100)
Message-ID: <199608191458.PAA01982@bailey.netlink.co.uk> (raw)
Call me dense, but I can't find any information about how to find the
difference between two dates (or between a date and now). I tried
simple subtraction (D.date - '08/19/1996', epoch - D.date) but they
don't work.
AltaVista and Yahoo were no help, so any assistance would be
gratefully received (especially since my Elmasri+Navath is 8 miles
away from my desk... :-)
