Date Functions

[TJVFree]

I've been having problems with my dates
Could you please help with my date queries?

Day functions are not working. "Pulling the correct information"

Monday
Date()-((((Weekday(Date()+2))+3)))

Tuesday
Date()-((Weekday(Date(),2))+5)

Wednesday
Date()-(Weekday(Date(),2)+4)

Thursday
Date()-(Weekday(Date()+2)+0)))

Friday
Date()-(Weekday(Date()+2)+6)

Month to Date
Format(Date(),"yyyymm")

----------------------------------------------------

Other examples

You really need to define what you expect your expressions to return for instance which Monday, Tuesday, ...? Is PreMonth all February or the same day of the month in the previous month?

Why add all the extra ()s. Some () as needed while those pairs on the far left and right are confusing.

There is a decent reference at Examples of using dates as criteria in Access queries
