Neotobeo Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 I am sure this has a simple solution.... I would like to determine the length of time between a patient's admission and the current date (today) or discharge date. If the discharge date is blank the calculation of subtracting the admission date from discharge date doesn't work; I have tried to assign another field losdatecorrection to help with the goal of this field containing either today's date or the discharge date and then performing the subtraction of admission date from this field, would like to use the calculation: Case(IsEmpty(dischargedate);//;dischargedate) This, however, doesn't work to enter the current date into this field ( // doesn't work). I guess my bottom-line question is: how do I get a field to enter today's date at all times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neotobeo Posted January 3, 2005 Author Share Posted January 3, 2005 Sorry gang: I think I figured it out: get(currentdate) discovery learning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
