Re: Query calc # days

In Query/400 result fields (odddat is field from file, in mmddyy format)

ddat         date(substr(odddat,1,2) || '/' ||
                substr(odddat,3,2) || '/' || subs
                tr(odddat,5,2))
daydsiff   days(current(date)) - days(ddat)

Similar in SQL

OK, you all know I am not technical.  My programmer is on vacation.  I
need to do a compare of date1 to date2 and calculate the number of days
between.  Can I do that in a query?  If yes, any direction of how would be
greatly appreciated.
