When DATE change it changes a Variable

[Guest_imported]

Hi everybody,

I am creating a forum and I need to create a way to give a post an expiry date. When it expire it'll delete the post from the Database.

I was thinking if I create a variable that changes when the NOW DATE changes, for when the variable to reach 10 it'll do delete.

But How can I code that? or is there a better way to do this?

Just put a time stamp when you add the post to the database. Then in your code that opens these up or allows you to view these it will write.

If PostedDate > (Date() + 10) then
RunPostDelete
Else
ViewPost
End IF
