How To Get time Diff Between Two Dates

Overview

This How-To will show you how to get the Time Difference in between two date questions.

1. Let’s say we have for example two date questions:
   
2. After both date questions were answered, in order to get the Time Difference in days between them, I would write this function:
   Round(TimeDiffDays(Answer(2),Answer(1)));

   If I answered in question1:
   12\23\2012
   and in question2:
   12\30\2012

   It will return 7.

   The Right parameter is the older date; the Left parameter is the newer date.
   The Round function will just return an integer instead of a non-integer number.

   You can use this returned value wherever you need in your survey

3. The time diff function is also valid for seconds\hours\days\months\years, here are the rest of them:

• TimeDiffSeconds
• TimeDiffHours
• TimeDiffDays
• TimeDiffMonths
• TimeDiffYears

Please Note: The first date entered is the later date.
