Use this Code :

DateTime dt1 = new DateTime(2009, 12, 1);
DateTime dt2 = new DateTime(2010, 11, 5);
int nodays = dt2.Subtract(dt1).Days;

The nodays will hold the number of days between those dates.

Cheers.

Code as follows -

DateTime oldDate = new DateTime(2002,7,15);<br />
DateTime newDate = DateTime.Now;<br />
// Difference in days, hours, and minutes.<br />
TimeSpan ts = newDate - oldDate;<br />
// Difference in days.<br />
int differenceInDays = ts.Days;<br />
Console.WriteLine("Difference in days: {0} ", differenceInDays);
