DevGuru VBScript Function: DateAdd

FUNCTION: DateAdd( )

Implemented in version 2.0

DateAdd(Interval, Number, Date)

The DateAdd function adds a time interval to any date.

There are three mandatory arguments.

Interval

The Interval argument defines the the type of time interval you wish to add onto the date.

You must place the setting inside double quotes.

Only the following settings may be used.

SETTING	DESCRIPTION
YYYY	Year
Q	Quarter
M	Month
Y	Day Of Year
D	Day
W	WeekDay
WW	Week Of Year
H	Hour
N	Minute
S	Second

Number

The Number argument is a multiplier for the Interval argument (i.e., how many days, weeks, months, etc.). If this is a positive number, you will go forward in time. A negative number will go back in time.

Date

The Date argument is a date or time.

If you wish to use the current date or time, simply use the Date or the Now functions.

Code:
<% =Date %>
<% =DateAdd("WW", 6, Date) %>

Output:
3/16/99
4/27/99

Code:
<% =Now %>
<% =DateAdd("S", 30, Now) %>

Output:
3/16/99 12:14:00 PM
3/16/99 12:14:30 PM

Code:
<% ="1/1/2001" %>
<% =DateAdd("YYYY", 1000, "1/1/2001") %>

Output:
1/1/2001
1/1/3001
