i need a list box that inserts different dates in selection.upon insertion of the data, i will have a drop down box to ask the user how many days they want to display the advert.this will be arranged in the drop down as : 3 days, 7 days, 10 days, 14 days
Now say if the user selects they want to advertise the ad for 3 days.
I want the date inserted in the database to be from 3 days from the current date!!!
hope this is making sense.
Can you help?

What scripting langauage are you using?
Have you tried using the DATEADD function?
www.w3schools.com/vbscript/func_dateadd.asp is a good place to start.
DateAdd(d,cmbDropDown,date) - something like that
