There are two parts to my question. I appreciate any help I can get, I am a rookie learning as I go. I am designing a DB for my store that tracks customer special request orders. The orders fall into two categories, next available or future set date.
I have tblWhenNeeded with 'Next Available' and 'Future Date' as the choices. Also, the field in tblOrderDataEntry 'When Needed' is a combo box. What I am trying to accomplish is having the data for the field 'OrderOn' in tblOrderDataEntry be a calculated field if "next Available' is selected or be user entered if 'Future Date' is selected.
Secondly, if I use the Date() function in my calculations, wouldn't the dates based on that calculation change depending on when the order is opened in the future? I'm sure I'm overthinking a lot of this, my brain is just jumbled as I'm learning.
Thanks in advance!!!
