I'm trying to add a field that will calculate the current day and and X number of days to it and store it in the database.

In sub add_record after
$status = &validate_record;

I put in
&calc_date


Subroutine as follows.

sub calc_date
{
$in{'Expdate'} = &get_date ( &date_to_unix ($in{'Date'}) + ($in{'Days'} * 86400);
}

It returns the current date.

What am I missing?


Thanks
