I assume rs("date_completed") calls the database and retreives a stored
date? If so, I think you could just do a simple if then w/o your
pastdate variable :
if rs("date_completed") > date - 90 then
This just simply compares the stored date with todays today's date, to
which it subtracts 90 days. If the stored date is greater then the date
90 days ago, the then if is fired.
HTH,
Casey

I am trying to show only those records where the date is not older than
3 months from a date in the database.
Here is my code:
pastdate = DateAdd("m",-3,Now()) 'pastdate is now three months ago
do while not rs.eof
if rs("date_completed") > pastdate then 'if date in database is
newer than date three months ago
response.write pastdate 'show the date
end if
loop
I tried using both 2/01/02 and 2/01/02 in the database and neither makes
the date show.
Anyone know where I am wrong?
Thanks,
Josh
