Hello, I am looking for any help I can get on creating a 'tickler' function. I want this function to query records in a training database and retreive the records where training took place over 23 months ago. I would like this to run automatically and pop up a message and/or print report when training is 23 months old.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
 
Use the datediff control to determine if the difference between the recorded date and now() ir greater than 23 months. I am sure that this control returns days so you would have to calculate on this basis.

johnny,

DateDiff is the correct FUNCTION, I am not aware of a CONTROL named 'datediff'
