Get X date before DateTimeNow

Question

I have been trying many SQL expression to get this work, but no luck when "NOT IN DB"

I want to get the [date]<= DateTimeNow() - X

so I can change the x to any of the date that I need.

Example, X=1, which means Today() - 1

Date = DatetimeNow works, but when subtracting a number, it doesn't work.

Thank you.

Do you really want 01 to be February?

Did you know that you can use a date field to get to the month name quickly?

DateTimeFormat([Date],"%b") will return just the month name abbreviation.

For your switch, is month a string or number?

You seem to be hitting the default value. Check your data to make sure that there are no spaces or missing leading zeros.

Cheers,

Mark

WOW you are so fast to catch my question!  But I figured out the problem 2 minutes after, so I changed the content..... Very sorry, I don't know how to delete the topic.

Yes, I really meant 01 to be February.

I should remove the "0" in front of each number...

"1", "FEB"

Then it works!!!

Thank you very much for letting me know this function!

"DateTimeFormat([Date],"%b") will return just the month name abbreviation"
