    Posted: 06 August 2003 at 3:10am

Hey,

I'm using a field in my database called 'date' which is automatically set to 'Now()'. I was wondering how I would, say, check if seven, fourteen and twenty-one days have passed.

Basically, I need something to happen if a week, two weeks or three weeks have passed.

Thanks,

~silva

Use DateDiff

E.g

If DateDiff("d",date1,date2) > 7 Then
    Go eat food
End If

"d" measn days you also have other such as "n" for minute "m" for month and heaps more.

You should not call fields in your database date either as it will cause issues with your sql make sure you use [date] when doing sql. In access anyway.
