Date and Time

How do I subtract one day from the current date?

example: Now() - 1 *** does not work in vb.net

Maybe like this ?

sDate as string = Now.ToShortDateString
sDate.Substring(..)

Maybe like this ?

sDate as string = Now.ToShortDateString
sDate.Substring(..)


I don't see how that will subtract one day from the current date.

IE...01/30/2006 = 01/29/2006

i dont know if u can subtract days, but u could do

Dim _Date as Date = Now
_Date.adddays(-1) 'not sure of exact command, if its .adddays or what

once again, i dont know if u can add negetive days...
