Arithmetic Operation with Dates

Hi I'm trying to get the difference between two dates. I need to create a Calculated member to show it. I'm using this formula

PeriodDays = LastDate - FirstDate

For example, I have a Time Dimension, I choose two dates:

FirstDate = 07/04/2006 it's identity is 300

LastDate = 15/04/2006 it's identity is 308

PeriodDays = 308 - 300 = 8 this value I need to show in a Calculated Member

The Time dimension has three levels

Year, month and date

What happens when I choose only a month?

Thanks

Hi, ohh, I will try to explain again

I need to get how many days are between two dates, For example, I choose two dates from my Time dimension

Date1 = 07/04/2006

Date2 = 15/04/2006

Days = Date2 - Date1 = 15/04/2006 - 07/04/2006 = 8 days and this value I need to show in a Calculated member

Is it possible?

My time dimension has three levels

Year, Month and day

Can I do this operation, with the month level?

Regards

Thanks
