Shouldn't be greater or equal? If a patient entries today you can not input tomorrow to return true, can you?

Solution 2

Use DateTime.Now[^] for the comparison.
Depending on your needs, either

Retrieve the medical entry date from the database and compare it with Now.

Or

Write a SQL query using Now as the comparison parameter.

Hello,

Try this code and if the result is positive then database date smaller than today's date and vice versa.

DateTime date = Convert.ToDateTime("01 / 01 / 1990");
TimeSpan ts = DateTime.Now - date;
lblMsg.Text = Convert.ToString(ts.TotalDays);

thanks.
