You can use the DATEDIFF function

It's pretty simple and you can use it to find the difference between two dates as long as the dates are valid

 

the syntax is DATEDIFF( 1st date , 2nd date )

ex: SELECT DATEDIFF('2012-11-20','2008-11-20') AS DateDifference

 

Note : If you used the date/time format the difference will be calculated from the date only

In SQL, to dynamically get the current date (and time) you will need to type the following codes

select getdate()

 

And to calculate the difference between two dates and get the result in days, months, years or minutes your syntax should be like this:

Days:select datediff (d, fromDATE, toDATE)

Months:select datediff (mm, fromDATE, toDATE)
Years:select datediff (yy, fromDATE, toDATE) 
Minutes:select datediff (mi, fromDATE, toDATE)
