A payment falling on the first fortnight of the month is given the 1st of
the month, otherwise the 16th.

Dave -

Something here doesn't look correct to me, and again I may be totally off
base...

Does this have to do with calculating a payment due date?

Did you really intend to calculate the first day of the CURRENT month or
the
first day of the NEXT month if the day in your date field is greater than
or
equal 16?

It seems to me that it would be the latter - determining the date of the
first day of the NEXT month.

Is there a nice way to do this, given a date DD/MM/YYYY:

If the day of my date field is the 16th or later,
MyNewDateField = 16/MM/YYYY

Else
MyNewDateField = 01/MM/YYYY
