Difference between today's date and a date field

Hi,

How do I proceed to get the difference between the dates stored in ProjectLiveDate and the current date so that the difference will be in days.

Example: If ProjectLiveDate is 3/27/2017 in M/D/YYYY format

               and today's date is 4/7/2017 in M/D/YYYY format

               the difference will be 11 days

Thanks

If the dates are read as dates, you can just do this

Today(1) - ProjectLiveDate

If for some reason, QlikView doesn't understand your date, then this

Today(1) - Date#(ProjectLiveDate, 'M/D/YYYY')

And if you have time stamp for hour/min/sec, you might try with interval() like:

Interval(Today(1) - Date#(ProjectLiveDate, 'M/D/YYYY') , 'D') as DayDiff

Thanks stalwar1‌ and tresesco‌, saw your answers now. I tried

DATEDIFF(DAY,ProjectLiveDate,GETDATE()) as LiveDate

and it worked at my end.
