menacy asked:

Open original thread
i have my code which runs fine, but i want to use my expression if any or can i do in my expression to select only of years,months and days.example if my output is 3 years=3years and not 3years,0month,0days, and 7months should only display 7 months and not 0years,7months,0days as well as days to be 6days rather than 0 years 0months and 6 days.
here is my code in my expression

=code.GetCustomDate(avg(Fields!SentenceLength.Value))

VB
Public Function GetCustomDate(ByVal days As Int32) As String
        Dim objDate1 As DateTime = DateTime.Now()
        Dim objDate2 As DateTime = objDate1.AddDays(-1 * days)
'This has to be modified as not correct.
        Return "Years = " & (objDate1.Year - objDate2.Year) & " Months = " & (objDate1.Month - objDate2.Month) & " Days = " & (objDate1.Day - objDate2.Day)
    End Function


thanks in advance

When answering a question please:
  1. Read the question carefully.
  2. Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
  3. If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
