DBT - Days Between This operator takes the days between Operand 2 and Operand 3, and stores the result in Operand 1. This is calculated by subtracting the value in Operand 3 from the value in Operand 2. The value stored in Operand 1 will be either a positive or negative value. The number of months will be expressed as a fractional number. Statement: Find the number of days that have passed since the beginning of the year, store it into Variable Day of Year.
