Am confused as to what Date = Date + 1 means?

MLH
Does
Date = Date + 1
mean

Date Statement equals Date Function plus 1?

And if the answer is Yes, how much actual time
is being added to the date function in this assignment?

Well if it isn't the dimmest of the dimwits who can't read read again!!
Didn't you get someone to read this thread to you? Or did your mother read
it to you when she can't read either? For your edification (oops is that too
big of a word for you?), the poster asked about adding an integer number of
days to the Date function and Mr. Stiphout suggested using the DateAdd
function. My response was about both of these issues!!!
IME the OP indeed did *not* ask for that!!
But I guess you were only trying to be *really* helpful to the poor poster here ...
Are you going to try and tell MLH that he didn't ask about adding an integer
number of days to the Date function just like you tried to tell another
poster he did not ask about default values?


Steve, that 'misunderstandi ng' (from you that is ...) happened in another newsgroup !!
Don't bother *us* here with that, or you might even get plonked by one of us ...

Well Dimwit, that is the Date function plus an integer. That's what I said!
Are you also saying Mr Stiphout was out of line adding his suggestion about
the DateAdd function? And how about Mr. Fenton? Are you saying he was out of
line when his comment was about the Help files? FRIGGING is probably too big
of a word for you to understand. It probably took it totally out of your
grasp when he used all caps!!

Your ignorance is glowing brightly!!!!

What are you rambling on about? This has nothing to do with what the
original poster asked. Or is this just an attempt to add to the number
of pseudo answers you post per month? More than likely, another attempt
to place your solicitations in the newsgroups.

You have to be real careful using both expressions dtSomeDate + 7 and
DateAdd("d", 7, dtSomeDate). Say dtSomeDate is a Sunday and you want a
query to return all the records that occured Sunday to Saturday. You
might think that you would use Between dtSomeDate and dtSomeDate + 7 in
the criteria or Between dtSomeDate and DateAdd("d", 7, dtSomeDate).
Wrong!! If Sunday would be November 13, 2005, both dtSomeDate + 7 and
DateAdd("d", 7, dtSomeDate) give November 20, 2005; the following
Sunday not the following Saturday. For the criteria you need to use
dtSomeDate + 6 and DateAdd("d", 6, dtSomeDate). This is a case of
COUNTING days so you need to use 6 rather than 7 to get 7 days. Now if
you wanted ELAPSED days, that's different. 7 Elapsed days is Sunday to
Sunday so here you need to use 7 not 6.

How does the saying go, "....dimwit eers flock together"?

And BTW, there was no misunderstandin g on my part! It was dimwiteer Marshall
who argued with the poster about what the poster said.

Listen to the pot calling the kettle black. You would seem to be the one who
doesn't know how to read. Your post had nothing to do with the original
question. You simply look for any excuse to advertise your incompetent
service. In addition to posting off topic, you post incorrect solutions and
post replies to questions you have posted yourself with other identities.
Given your childish, unprofessional behavior, anyone would be insane to hire
your PCDataSheet services.

These 1000 (if at all a real figure..) is only the result of

-- 4 years blatantly advertising and job hunting.

You only care about making money, and you act as if the groups are your private hunting ground.
So why would ANYBODY ever trust a person like you and hire you?
