I checked, it's Date/Time

Anne,

Make sure that the field you have created is not a Date Only field but a Date 
and Time field.. If its a Date Only field then your calculation should be 
$DATE$*$NumberOfDays$.

The Date Only field type uses $DATE$ and is different from the Date and Time 
field type which uses $TIMESTAMP$ for setting values to it..

Cheers

Joe

I have a set fields action that just doesn't like what I'm setting the field 
to.  I'm trying to set a date field using math; I'm trying to set
Required Resolution Date (date/time field) to 
$TIMESTAMP$+(60*60*24*$NumberOfDays$)
on some custom forms and it just doesn't work.  If I set it with another 
date/time field, it works, but if I try and calculate time using timestamp, it 
doesn't.  According to abydos, if I put in the calucation, the other part of 
the action changes from selecting from my form to "current transaction"--but 
this is not reflected on the screen when looking at the filter in 
administrator.  I came up with a work around, but I wonder if this is expected 
behavior, if I'm doing something wrong, or if I found a weird bug.  Has anyone 
else seen this type of thing before?
