Adding + 1 to Date field

[SteveGriff]

Just a small question,

Is there a way of incrementing the day of a Date field by 1? As in the contents of 23/12/01 becoming 24/12/01?

Any ideas?

Thanxs

Set Field["dateField","dateField + 1"]

Hi Steve,

Try writing a script which uses Set Field to affect the field that contains the date you want to change. Let's call the field, "DueDate" It could look a little like this...

Set Field ["DueDate", "Date(Month(Today), Day(Today) + 1, Year(Today))"]

Everytime you run that script it should increase the date by one day.

Arrrrghhh!

DON'T USE THE TODAY FUNCTION. Use Status(CurrentDate).

Besides all that, wouldn't Set Field [DueDate, DueDate + 1] work just as well?

HAHAHA

Just a little frustrated with the Today function, Vaughan??

Yeah, the Status(Current Date) works much better, esp. if FM is left open over night, or something.

It's like in a car park you see somebody put their drink onto the car roof, get the keys out to open the door... you just know what's going to happen!
