Error Trying To Use DateDiff

[Ark68]

I am getting an "Invalid procedure call or argument" error with line of code. I am hoping someone is able and willing to help me correct it.

cdt = Now
If DateDiff(h, cdt, dc_rmr1) > 24 Then     '<--- ERROR!
      l = InStr(.Cells(trow, 9), ":")
      llen = Len(.Cells(trow, 9))
      .Cells(trow, 9).Characters(l, llen).Font.Color = c_red
End If

I'm trying to determine if the difference between two dates (cdt and dc_rmr1) is greater than 24 hours.

cdt = 2020-07-12 10:01:04 AM
dc_rmr1 = 44022.6614583333

h should be in double quotes.

I have seen some unpredictable accuracy problems with rounding when using datediff, personally I would use this in an effort to try and eliminate such errors.

If DateDiff("s", cdt, dc_rmr1) > 86400 Then

Hey Jasonb75, thank you so much. Your suggestion managed to eliminate the error, which was what prompted me plea for help.
But now without the error, I'm not getting the results I am expecting.

cdt = July 12, 2020 10:01:04 AM
dc_rmr1 = July 10, 2020 15:52:30 PM

Clearly there is more than 24 hours diffeence between the two dates, but my code is processing it as false and my code associated to a positive isn't being executed.

 

[jasonb75]

If you only want TRUE when dc_rmr1 is more than 24 hours in the past then you need to swap it with cdt.
If you want TRUE for differences of 24 hours past and future then wrap the DateDiff formula in ABS()

Ahhh. I had my arguments reversed and corrected, is working. Thank you again!
