The function is Dateadd. the syntax is Dateadd(PeriodT ype,period,date )
in your case it would be
Newdate = Dateadd("d",-7,OldDate)
The function is Dateadd. ...in your case it would be Newdate = Dateadd("d",-7,OldDate)
Also, you can probably use the Now() function for the current time. That would make something like - Newdate = DateAdd("d",-7,Now())
(You might not need the parentheses after Now - I forget).

SELECT * FROM TableName
WHERE [Date Field] BETWEEN Date() And Date()-7;

As the Date in Access is stored as 'Number of Days since ...' and the time is stored as a fractional part of a day, adding/subtracting a number to a date field is equivalent to using - DateAdd("d",number,[Date Field])
The documentation for DateAdd() also includes an option for adjusting by a weekday ("w"). I've found this not to work (albeit only tested up to Access 2K).

Hi,
I have a query that produces an output similar to the sample shown
below. These records are based on certain criteria and a date range
selected from a form. I need to create some kind of calcualtion or
record manipulation to do the following:
I need to subtract dates from one another, for example for ID 1 I want
to find the difference between 24-Jun-04 and 25-Jan-06 for the 2
applications for Person1.

Hi,
I need some help with JS. I will be grateful, if you can help me out.
I have two date fields (check in, check out) and "number of days"
field.
I want the script to calculate automatically the difference.
For example: I have defaults dates, and I want the script to put the
difference in "number of days" field. And if the user will change the
date, the number of days will change automatically.

I'm looking for a way to calculate the number of days between two
dates using standard C++ functions.
Would it be as simple as just using the difftime() function and then
dividing that result by the number of seconds in a day?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
