This is a stupid bug:

Instead of using Date(), I used CInt() thinking that I will get the days only, 
without the time. But this is true only on GMT+0, because Gambas stores date 
in GMT+0 format internally.

In other words, if you are in France, for example, 2006/09/19 is internally 
stored as 2006/09/18 23:00:00, and so using CInt() returns 2006/09/18. And so 
you lose on day.

I will fix it in the next version.
