1st post here. I have 2 fields- Contract purchase date and a Date of expiration. I just need a simple way to add either 3,5,or 7 years to the Contract purchase date to then reflect the actual Date of expiration in the Date of expiration field . When I use Year with result in text, I get the year correct but no day and month in the Date of expiration field. When I use result in date, the result makes no sense. Yes, I'm pretty new at this, but this is the only thing holding up my little DB. Thanks for any help!

Try...

Date ( Month(Contract_Date); Day(Contract_Date) ; Year(Contract_Date)+ Contract_Period_Years)

Date result

...according to Pilate (and latin grammar) are you a "she" then, rush to your profile and change gender ...it's the a in the ending of the firstname, that makes you female!
