| Hi there i am using the datediff funtion but it does not seem to be inclusive of the two dates egSELECT DATEDIFF(day, s_Date, e_date) AS NumberOfDays,*FROM weekendtesti know i could doSELECT DATEDIFF(day, s_Date, e_date)+1 AS NumberOfDays,*FROM weekendtestbut i was just wondering if there some other function i should use that would be more appropriate |

Not really . . well if you don't like to + 1, you can use - 1  SELECT DATEDIFF(day, s_Date - 1, e_date) AS NumberOfDaysFROM weekendtest
