What exactly is meant by Days Between? For example how many days are there between today and tomorrow?
There is also a difference between days and 24hour periods. How many days are there between a minute before midnight and a minute after? All the mechanisms have been explained by others, but care is needed to get the desired results! (When is it not?)

For example, DaysBetween(Today, StrToDate('07/16/2005')) will give you the days between 7/16/2005 and today.
