Here's the gist of what I'm trying to do. I'm actually using VB.NET to work with an xml file, and I have an xml file with various elements, each of the parent elements having a date attribute.

I am trying to figure out if I can write an xpath statement that selects all the dates older than a day I specify. Is this possible? I've tried several different approaches, but I can't make it work. Is there a built in recognition of dates in XML, or am I going to have to find some way of manual parsing it?
