If second date is getdate()-14 days, then you must already know that there is 14 days diff?
Or are you trying to calculate the starting date? If that's the case, you need to use the DATEADD function in T-SQL: 
                
                     0

johram replied already you know the actual differance between two dates then .. what days needs to be calualted?
might be you are trying to calucalte the date difference between two dates.

SELECT DateDiff( DD,DATEADD(day,-14,GetDATE()),'2008-07-05') 
DateDiff( DD,,)

SELECT [yourcolumn list] FROM yourTable

WHERE dtColumn>DateAdd(second, -1, DateAdd(day, DateDiff(day, 0, getdate()), 0)) 

AND dtColumn<=DateAdd(second, -1, DateAdd(day, DateDiff(day, 0,getdate()), 14))  --Change this number for days.
