Thanks Gord,

Now I've got this working:
SELECT login.logid, login.logpas, login.logfnm, login.logcnm,
       login.logacc, login.logact, login.loglev, login.logsts,
       login.logphone, login.logemail, login.logflg1, login.logflg2,
       login.logedte, login.logeusr, login.logmdte, login.logmusr,
       login.logpsod, login.logpwcd, login.logpwei, login.logpwex,
       tpnbr.tpnbr, tpnbr.tpttype, tpnbr.rolecode,
      tptype.tpt400, tptype.tptlib, tptype.tptfile, tptype.tptfield,
      tptype.tptpname, tptype.tpphone, tptype.tpfax, tptype.tpemail,
       tpfacl.tpfacl, tpfacl.tpdrawflr
FROM (((login left outer join tpnbr
          ON login.logid = tpnbr.logid)
      left outer join tptype
          on tpnbr.tpttype = tptype.tpttype)
      left outer join tpfacl
          on tpnbr.logid = tpfacl.logid
         and tpnbr.tpnbr = tpfacl.tpnbr
         and tpnbr.tpttype = tpfacl.tpttype)
where login.logid='RALPH' and login.logpas='MALPH'
 and login.logsts='1'
 and login.logpwex='0'
 and (login.logpwei<0 or
     (CURRENT DATE > DATE(logpwcd + logpwei days)))

Hey Rob

You should be able to say:

CURRENT DATE > DATE(logpwcd) + logpwei DAYS

Subject: SQL: Adding days to a date

I am trying to add days to a date in SQL.  Sample application
Password last change date is logpwcd stored as a timestamp.
Password expiration interval is logpwei stored as a decimal.

Now I've got this big complex sql statement with the following in it:
(CURRENT DATE > (logpwcd+logpwei))
Evidently you can't add an integer to a timestamp.  Which makes sense
because it didn't know if it was a day, seconds, or whatever.
Trying
(CURRENT DATE > (logpwcd+days(logpwei)))
hurls with SQL0171-Argument 1 of function DAYS not valid.
-- DAYS, the argument must be a date or a timestamp.
