What do you mean by previous date? The day before the given date?

You can just subtract the number of days from the current date, e.g. if you have a date object called date,
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. date.setDate(date.getDate() - previous); // where previous is the number of days to subtract

Since our season runs from the first SAT in October to 31 January, valid harvest dates for 2005-06 were 4 Oct 2005 to 31 Jan 2006. Many records will have missing or dates outside of this range. Date is needed to assign each dead deer to a...

Hi - I've been struggling to produce a working parameter query that will allow the end user to type in any date (mm/dd/yy) and obtain the records of the previous 2 days. In other words, if the user types in 08/07/06, the records of 08/05/06, 08/06/06 and 08/07/06 will all appear in the qry. I have the following code, which is real basic, but I am running into "the expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex etc".

I need the time for a report but for a form that the supervisors use to QA the previous days work I format the date to 7/19/2007 using a query Format(,"mm/dd/yy") so that they see everything for that date and not just that time. My questions is that when work is stamped after 12 midnight it date stamps to the next day, How do I...
