So if my 2 dates reference the same object, how do I go about
getting my hands on 2 distinct date objects? I need one that is
fixed (my reference date) and another that I can manipulate.
Every time you call New, you get a separate new object, a date in this case.

I have d1 declared as a global date. It's been "new"ed when the
window opens.
In a pushbutton I have the following code:
Dim d2 As New Date
This creates a new date and d2 references it
d2 = d1
This makes d2 reference the same date object as d1, and results in
discarding the new date you just created in the previous line.
d2.day = d2.day+1
This increments the only date object you have, which is referenced by
both d1 and d2 at this point.
Instead of using d2 = d1 which makes d2 reference the same date
object as d1, I think you're trying to give the d2 date object the
same date value as the d1 date object. If so you just need to assign
d2 the totalseconds value from d1.
Replace d2 = d1 with d2.totalseconds = d1.totalseconds, as has been suggested.
