get date

[Mike]

If I have a date such as 4/2/2008, is there a way to go back a month such as
3/2/2008?

DateTime dt = new DateTime(2008,4 ,2);
dt = dt.AddMonth(-1);

Re: get date

I've tried it and it gives me this error when I try to compile it:


DateTime dt = new DateTime(2008,4 ,2);
dt = dt.AddMonth(-1);

Error 24 'System.DateTim e' does not contain a definition for 'AddMonth'
