Posts: 196              Now I have this line, which is attempting to calculate 
a future date base on today's date:

d.totalSeconds + 60*60*24*16

I this will calculate 16 days ahead, but this isn't in the form of a date.

Location: Sandvika, Norway              try this

Code:dim d2 as new date

d2.totalSeconds = d.totalSeconds + 60*60*24*16


There is a lot of neat information on the Date class in the Language reference 
(aka. LR).

edit: if you want to update d, use: d.totalSeconds = d.totalSeconds + 
60*60*24*16

Posts: 883              Why not use something like this direct:
Code:dim d as new date
msgbox str(d.day+16)
