Alan,

A datetime is actual a value that contains ticks from a certain start date
(which differs by instance when it is from a server or is internally).

You use methods to show that and to manipulate.

One of them is

DateTime.AddDays(-x), what is maybe the most properiate for you to use in a
routine.
