Hi all,
How can I determine if a date is within 180 days?
I've been playing with DateTime.Compare below and using date1 +180 days (date1 is 28th August 2009 13:12)
DateTime.Compare(**date1**.AddDays(180), now)
Is this correct?
Thanks
Jamie

@Developer Art: the order is important

@Vlad: date1 lies in the past (28.08.2009), which is why it needs to be the argument, otherwise the Days returned will be negative.

A:
if (Math.Abs(DateTime.Now.Subtract(date1).Days) <= 180)
{
...
}
This will let you know if date1 is within 180 days IN EITHER DIRECTION of right now - past or future. If you only need into the past, go with Developer Art's answer.
