Question : I need my DateTimePicket to only allow dates for this year (vb.net)

I need something like this but this doesn't work obviously...

 DepartureDateTimePicker.MinDate() = ' 1/1 of the current year

I need this because I am Calculating the number of days in a range using the following logic due to the fact that I cannot figure out how to do it properly :^O

TravelDays = EndingDate.DayOfYear - BeginingDate.DayOfYear + 1

So if you can tell me the proper logic to determine the number of days in a range without using the dayofyear thing I will award the points to you.  Or, if all you can do is get me the range that I'm looking for then you can have the points.  I would rather get it proper so I don't have to worry about the whole first day of the year issue.

I'm creating a windows application for a school assignment using Visual Studio 2008 and VB.NET

Thanks in advance,

Use the DateDiff function to calculate the number of days, like this:

TravelDays = DateDiff("d", BeginingDate, EndingDate )
