Default 90 days and the first of the month

Missing a closing parenthesis in the Day(HiredDate) call

DateSerial(Year([HiredDate]), Month([HiredDate])+
IIF(Day([HiredDate])=1,3,4),1)

Thanks for the reply

I'm getting an error message on the following query.

90days from hireateSerial(Year([HiredDate]), Month([HiredDate])+IIF(Day(
[HiredDate]=1,3,4),1)

The error message is: The expression you have enterd has a function
containing the wrong
number of arguments.

Any Ideas

Try

DateSerial(Year([HiredDate]), Month([HiredDate])+IIF(Day([HiredDate]=1,3,4),1)

This will get *three months* which is not necessarily equal to 90 days.
