DateDiff Function Used to calculate the difference between two dates. DateDiff (“interval”, [date1],[date2]) “Interval” refers to whether the calculation is the difference between days (d), months (m) or years (y). Both fields must have Date/Time data types in order for this function to work properly.
10
IIF Function Used to evaluate a condition. If a condition is true, the IIF function returns one value. If it is false, it returns a different value. IIF (condition, value_if_true, value_if_false) is the syntax for the function. Condition means the condition you want the function to evaluate. Value_if_true is the value to be returned if the condition is true. Value_if_false is the value to be returned if the condition is not true.

Subreports Used to display data from two different reports. A subreport is embedded in a main report. Generally, the main report and subreport share a common field by which they are linked.
