Hi Rick. Could you advise me which Lesson I need to buy next to solve my following question: I have a column of dates (eg date when an inital email was sent to potential clients). I want to send a reminder email 14 days from the date I sent the first one. In Excel I was able to do this using "=" the cell in the original column, "+14". I can't see how to do this in Access but I'm sure there must be a way. Could you direct me to the best lesson that might illustrate this for me please. Many thanks!
Reply from Richard Rost:
You would do it almost the same way as in Excel. Whole days are equal to 1. So =Date+1 is tomorrow. So in a query make a calculated field and say:
NewDate: OldDate+14
That will now give you a new field (column) of values representing 14 days after OldDate.
