You could use the tutorial example titled Calculate a day, date, month and year, using n days delay. Simply:
• bookmark your starting date; • change 'DATE' wherever it appears in the field code to the bookmark name you give your starting date; and • change the 'Delay' value from 14 to 5.

Glad you've got it sorted.
PS: there's no need for your tags (e.g. <P> </P>) - the forum neither requires nor supports them.
