    Access stores dates as whole numbers and times as fractions of a day. See here for details http://support.microsoft.com/kb/210276.

    If you want to get a time 4hrs in the future, you can use DateTime + (4/24) this is 4 hours as a fraction of a day.

    If you want to get 8AM on a certain day, use Int(DateTime) + (8/24) the Int function just returns the integer part of a variable.

    Or you can google "Access DateDiff()" or "Access DateAdd()" functions for syntax and info.
