hi
In the below command I like to know can I combine it with the IIf function.
I am checking to see if NSCHD is blank. If it is blank I would place "no date"
in the place of the result..
"Starts In " & DateDiff("d",Fo rmat(Date(),"mm/dd"),Format([NSCHD],"mm/dd")) & " Days"
Thanks

You don't say where you are using this but I thing this would be better, it may even work!
"Starts In " & DateDiff("d",Da te(),[NSCHD]) & " Days"
Why format it as you actualy state "Starts in xx Days" and the fuction is set to return days ??
Note days will not format as mm/dd correctly (I believe).

I'd use a simple If...Then construct rather than IIF simply because it's easier to tell at a glance what's going on, and using expressions within IFF can get complicated with hard to spot errors resulting . Also, there's no need to use formatting on your dates in the DateDiff function; you're returning a number of days, not a date. I'd do something like this: - If IsNull(NSCHD) Then
-
"No Date"
-
Else
-
"Starts In " & DateDiff("d",Date,NSCHD) & " Day(s)"
-
End If
-
Good Luck!

Yha, you can use it like - "Starts In " & iif(DateDiff("d",Date,NSCHD) = 0,"No",DateDiff("d",Date,NSCHD)) & " Days"
but if Mike's qurey is workink then you can use that,
Didn't mean to step on your toes, Mike! Had to take the dog out between starting and ending my response. Actually the DateDiff will run with the dates formatted, it's just not necessary!

That is not a problem, anything can happen between staring a post and submitting it, and offen does!
I have never tried formatting a date inside DateDiff, had no reason to (yet!), but I will take your word for it.

function/expression even be set up that way, or do I need to do
something else to get 'days until completion'? (My Access manuals do

Anyone know of a better way to simulate a datediff for C#, i.e.,
without referencing the VB.NET runtime?
Only added the functionality that was needed for me so it is not
the full implementation of the DateDiff in the VB.NET runtime.
private int DateDiff( string Interval, DateTime Date1, DateTime Date2 )
{
int intDateDiff = 0;
TimeSpan time = Date1 - Date2;
