You can add DateTime and TimeSpan:
DateTime nowPlusFourHours = DateTime.Now + new TimeSpan(4, 0, 0, 0)You can also substract one DateTime from another one and get a TimeSpan back. -

Dim a As Date a = DateTime.Now.Add(New TimeSpan(4, 0, 0, 0)) -

Dim a As Date a = DateTime.Now.Add(New TimeSpan(4, 0, 0, 0))There is also DateTime.Now.AddDays(4) :)
