Default Need a date range

Do your arithmetic against the real date--then format the result:

Dim myDate as date
mydate = date - 14
msgbox format(mydate, "yymmdd")

Hi All,

I am trying to store todays date minus x amount of days. So I get todays
date with Date Function, format it to YYMMDD. Now my problem is, today is
the 12, so if I minus 2 weeks I get 80999, not 080929. So it drops my
leading zero and ignores the month

How do I maintain a date structure across month changes.

Thanks
Chad
