DateUtils.PeriodBetween help please for a countdown timer?

Hi

I am trying to count down to a particular future date. For example, today is August 30, 2016 at 17:00, my future date is October 1, 2016 at 15:00

I want to do a timer with a countdown every second of how many days, hours, minutes and seconds from today i.e. August 30, 29016 until October 1, 2016

This is what I have done currently.

Code:

  Dim speriod as period
speriod = DateUtils.PeriodBetween(sdatetimeEnd,DateTime.now)
log(speriod)  

and the output is...

Code:

  [Days=20,...  

DateUtils.PeriodBetween help please for a countdown timer?
