Roedy Green's website may be a help:

Although I have never needed to use it, Roedy Green does supply a
BigDate class that, no doubt, does this very well once you load
the entire class.

If you just want to subtract two dates, you might want to try
this:

Good luck and hope this helps. Regards, Tony Dahlman

That's good Tony (glib too , and no doubt right.

So how do you do this for months and years?

Not so easily, but I did it in C++ many years ago for a university project.
