    Hi there.
    If you have a Cobol 1989 based compiler it will do day differences using the FUNCTIONs that support date maniplulation.  There are several of these based on the format of the date you are working with. If you are using a Gregorian calendar date(YYYYMMDD):
    Display "days Difference between:" begin-date " and " end-date " is: "
    (Function Integer-of-date(end-date) - Function Integer-of-date(begin-date) ) " days."
    End-Display
    will display the difference for you.
    Thanks
