I need to subtract the beginning date from the date entered to determine the amount of time a deposit was in the bank to determine interest.

Here is what i have so far using some of my similar assignments

CODE

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

int main ()
{
  time_t rawtime;
  struct tm * timeinfo;

  time ( &rawtime );
  timeinfo = localtime ( &rawtime );
  printf ( "The current date/time is: %s", asctime (timeinfo) );

  return 0;
}

*edit: Please use code tags in the future. Thanks again! code.gif

That will provide the system time. Will you be using system time in your application? Or asking the user for dates?
