Calculate a Date
Hey Paul,
Again, Thank you for all your help with Word. I really appreciate your patience with a old guy like me, who is just not getting it.
So I went back and reviewed the Tutorial you created for Calculating a Date.
Under the section called "Calculate a day, date, month and year, using n days delay" there is a date that does not make sense, 24-1-5054. I assume this is Jan. 24th 5054.
If I toggle open the field there are 17 lines of code.
How does this work? Do I use the "Insert" feature in Word, and if so, what exactly am I inserting?
Do I just start using the cntl+f9 buttons to insert the bracers, and then start typing, and using that cntl+f9 to insert a new set of bracers, until all 17 are there?
You had mentioned only 2 lines above, so again, I am lost as to what I am supposed to do.
I'm also not seeing where I need to set 'n'? I just need the formula to calculate 3 business days from "today" and display that date.
What am I missing (aside from common sense and a working brain)
Thank you,
Shawn
