texte = Your problem is not with your search, which is fine, but rather with your math variable weeks... What you are storing in weeks is the math equivalent of a date, the number of days since 12/31/0000. What you need in your search is the text format of the date. So, try setting a text variable instead, like this:[text]weeks=[math date]{[date]}+14[/math][/text]- Brian At 4:18 PM 10/18/2001, Matthew Bohne wrote: >I have an event date, and corrosponding description information: >eventdate and eventdesc respectively. > >I need to display all events from today until two weeks from today >out of a .db called norcalendar.db > >[math date]weeks={[date]}+14[/math] >[search >db=norcalendar.db&xreventdatedata=[weeks]&mreventdatedata=[date]&eventdatetype=date&eventdatesort=1] >[founditems] >
