You should try to press F1 or use intelissense some time : https://msdn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/library/system.timespan.days(v=vs.110).aspx – Drag and Drop Aug 01 '18 at 09:07

1Is 30 days and 1 tick essentially equal to 30 days? – Lasse V. Karlsen Aug 01 '18 at 09:10

There is the property TotalDays
There's also TotalHours, TotalMinutes, TotalSeconds and TotalMilliseconds. You should check out the TimeSpan-properties for more information

You can use the property Days of the TimeSpan object, which returns the days component of the time interval
if (ts.Days == 30)
{
// do something
}

@peter, yes but still 1 and 1.xx will give the same result when compare to int. – Drag and Drop Aug 01 '18 at 09:09

Yes, my answer was based on the assumption that the user wanted to compare to an integer, so just whole days and not fractions – Riccardo Bellini Aug 01 '18 at 09:10

230 days 23 hours 59 minutes still gives `Days = 30`, but `TotalDays = 30.999xxx`, so there **is** a significant difference. – Lasse V. Karlsen Aug 01 '18 at 09:11

It *might* be a dupe, I'm still not convinced the OP want's to discard the time on that 30th day and just say "30 ish". It is a big difference between "exactly 30 days" and "30 days and some extra time". – Lasse V. Karlsen Aug 01 '18 at 10:47

TimeSpan t = new TimeSpan();
if(t.TotalDays==30)
{
//Do Something
}
