How to find out a date/time difference

Lad
I use datetime class in my program and now
I have two fields that have the datetime format like this
datetime.datetime(2006, 5, 24, 16, 1, 26)

How can I find out the date/time difference ( in days) of such two
fields?
Thank you for help?

Convert datetime.datetime(2006, 5, 24, 16, 1, 26) to an ordinal number
like:
datetime.datetime(2006, 5, 24, 16, 1, 26).toordinal()
and subtract them to get number of days.

Did you try to subtract one value from the other?

Mvh,
