texte = I am using a ShoppingCart...with the ShowCart command. It is for groceries. The person selects their items, then when the order is confirmed, those items are written to a new database, purchased.db. Then...daily and weekly reports need to be generated from the purchased.dbIf a person orders today before 9:30, then delivery is possible today. If a person orders today after 9:30, then delivery must be after today. Either way, they select their delivery date.In order to show them only their valid delivery date options, I want to use this:[showif [myTime]>0930] [showif [myDate]=Monday] [/showif] [/showif][showif [myTime]<0930] [showif [Date %A]=Monday] [/showif] [/showif]But because the ShoppingCart file already has a [Date] and [Time]...I can't.This is also important for running the daily and weekly totals (for the grocery store)...because I can't use only the day of the week....there will be duplicates from the second, third, fourth week...etc. I can't use only times, because of the same reason. This is the only solution I have thought of....is there an easier way? I'm trying the myDate and myTime right now.At 12:07 PM 11/15/99, you wrote: >Are you using a ShoppingCart or OrderFile on that second page? Then you have >those fields already.
