    Convert it all to days and simply subtract.

    Theres more where those came from

    BTW birdman its more difficult to convert into days than you might think because you have to take leap years into account which really wouldn't be that hard but then youwould still have to subtract and I don't know how to subtract a certain number of days from a date

    Method: 2005-17=1988 1988 is a leap year.
    There are 123 days from the start of that year to may 2nd.
    284-123=161
    Then simply subtract the days of the months from that. That means 161-31=130 and continue from there.
