Hello,
I am running an Access 2002 database and would like my form to calcualate
the current number of days that a form is out of the office against the
current date. How do I do this?

The field I track date sent is called: [ORG_EST_TO_CLIENT_DATE] vs. [Today's
Date]

How would I get my form to do this? Thank you .
 
So simple! Thanks!

The other alternative to Rick's is a function called DateDiff() which
is able to work with some of the more difficult date calculations.

Hi Brett,
How would my statement look using this function?

Rick, I have a question about this statement. I would like to use this date
calcuation into a report based on estimates over 30 days. However the
calcuation only shows up on the form - how do I insert and track into a
report or query?

Thanks!

examples ... better than i could do at this hour of the night :)
