    Calculate a field to format as a date field

    jennyd41: In one instance I have the field calculate a date from: IIf([Indicator]Is Null AND [DateField1] Is Not Null, [Datefield1]-5, [DateField2]+3). Like I said, this gives me the result I want, but in the MakeTable, the field is formated as text and not as a date field.

However, the new date fields in the Table come across as text fields and I have to manually convert the fields to Date fields to...

    Network Database gets "..file in use.." notice.

    I have an Access97 database that sits on a network that is used by many people simultaneously. Every now and then, a user attempting to open the database gets a message that contains “…file already in use..” and the database won’t open. I’m confused why this happens every now and then?

    Conditional Statements in a query

    I have a traditional query in SQL Server 2000 with the SELECT, FROM, WHERE, and ORDERBY. However, when I go to add particular conditions like: if (([a certain date field]<=Date()) Then ([a certain date field]=([another date field]+[a time duration field])); However, I just can't seem to get the...
