Any easy way to calculate month difference between 2 dates?

Just to be clear, I need to know how many months the dates span, for example:

Jan 29th 2010, and Feb 1st 2010 = 2 months
Jan 1st 2010, and Jan 2nd 2010 = 1 month
Feb 14th 2010, Feb 1st 2011 = 13 months
Feb 1st 2010, March 30th 2011 = 14 months

Answer 1

DisplayTo.getMonth() - DisplayFrom.getMonth() + (12 * (DisplayTo.getFullYear() - DisplayFrom.getFullYear())));

getMonth minus getMonth gives you the month difference between the dates two months.

We then multiply 12 by the number of years difference and add this to the result giving us the full month span.
