post the code that you've done...

Do you mean something like this:

' Get current date
Label1.Text = System.DateTime.Now.ToString
' User enters number of days in the TextBox. Lets say 8 days
TextBox1.Text = "8"
' Now calculate date for DateTimePicker
DateTimePicker1.Value = CDate(Label1.Text).AddDays(CInt(TextBox1.Text))

And now the DatetimePicker shows: "1. October 2008" (exact format depends on your locale settings).

:$ This is VB6, not VB.NET, sorry. Let's try again...

' Get current date
Label1.Caption = Now
' User enters number of days in the TextBox. Lets say 8 days
Text1.Text = "8"
' Now calculate date for DateTimePicker
DTPicker1.Value = DateAdd("d", CInt(Text1.Text), CDate(Label1.Caption))

And now the DTPicker shows: "1.10.2008" (exact format depends on your locale settings).

' Get current date

' User enters number of days in the TextBox. Lets say 8 days
Text1.Text = "8"
' Now calculate date for DateTimePicker
DTPicker1.Value = DateAdd("d", CInt(Text1.Text), CDate(Label1.Caption))
