Watch those parentheses and square brackets. They must match up. I think
what you need is: IIF([Reviewed Value] = 0, null, [Complete Date] - [Reviewed Value]) "Casey P" wrote in message ...

Huh, I knew it was something simple. I was leaving the "null" out!

You have no closing square bracket after Reviewed Value, and you have two left parentheses and only one right parenthesis. They've got to balance! Try = iif(Reviewed Value) = 0, null, ([Complete Date] - [Reviewed Value])) John W. Vinson[MVP]
