@Geo

Honestly, was hard to understand the question so I just winged it. lol Even as I read it again right now, I can't tell which one of us is correct in addressing their issue, especially since they didn't bother to reply back to either of us or provide sufficient information.

Whatever their real question is, I think between me and you they have enough information to come up with their result.

I think this is what you're looking for. Hope it helps.

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;

public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
GregorianCalendar targetDate = new GregorianCalendar(); // our calendar object
Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in); // our input object
int userInput = 0;

// Obtain input from user in DAYS
System.out.println("Please enter number of days: ");
userInput = Integer.parseInt(scnr.nextLine());

// Subtract user's input against our calendar object
targetDate.add(GregorianCalendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -userInput);

// Print our date/time.
System.out.println(targetDate.getTime());

}
}
