Should be easily convertable to PB/DOS.

Convert the two dates to julian, subtract the two and that will be the number of days between the two. Should be easy to convert that to YY/MM/DD's

Does anyone know where I can get a formula that I can program into Power Basic that given two complete dates (such as 1918-09-22 and 1994-04-04) it will return the difference in years, months, and days? It would be a BIG help in this project I have.

Btw, the answer (arrived by using a calendar and actually counting by hand), should be 75 years, 6 months, 13 days. Can a formula do that for me in Power Basic please?

Thank you.
