Trying to subtract one day from DateTimeToday

I am trying to subtract one day from todays date (DateTimeToday) and not successful. I am using the formula tool to create two new date columns. One of which is labeled TODAY (DateTimeToday) and the second called YESTERDAY. However, I thought this formula would work but not having much luck

 

TODAY = DateTimeToday() 

 

YESTERDAY = [TODAY]<DateTimeAdd(ToDate(DateTimeNow()),-1,"days")

 

The output is ZERO.

Figured this out:

 

DateTimeAdd([TODAY],-1,"days")
