Hello,
this is my scenario. I have an access database with return dates for clients of my organization. I need to find a way of auto flagging those that have missed a return date by upto a week and then those that have been missing for an even longer while.
Any pointers are welcome.

Thanks in advance!

Solution 1

Create a date variable that is updated each time they log on, and have that date compared with [TODAY], if it over the required period apply, say, a colour change, so that it is highlighted.
