SQL Query - DATEADD function ? Goal - have events @+3 days display today

I have events which require certain things be done several days before the event and things be done several days after the event. I attempted to use the DATEADD function to subtract 3 days from the event date. The SQL Statement I created did just that, but, it displays 3 days back from today's date.

There are 2 tables:

CalendarCategories -- Table

CalCategoryID -- int field
CalCategoryName -- varchar field

CalendarEvents -- Table

CalCategoryID -- int Field
Title -- varchar Field
StartDate -- DateTime Field


I have to perform some tasks 3 days before the event. So, TODAY, I want to see a listing of those events which are scheduled for 3 days FROM NOW.

This is my current SQL Statement:
SELECT DATEADD(d,-3,StartDate) AS [Update Payoffs & Ins], Title AS [Closing Description] FROM CalendarEvents WHERE datepart(dd,StartDate)=datepart(dd,getdate()) AND datepart(mm,StartDate)=datepart(mm,getdate())

This SQL Statement takes TODAY'S events and gives them a date of February 20. See example of the results at http://www.joelwilliamslaw.com/Desk....aspx?tabid=141


This is what I have already done relative to my calendar listings:

Specific Event Types for the Current Month :

SELECT StartDate AS [Date and Time], CalCategoryName AS [Cls Type], Title AS [Closing Description] FROM CalendarEvents inner join CalendarCategories
on CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = CalendarCategories.CalCategoryID
where (CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 1 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 2 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 3 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 4 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 20) AND (datepart(mm,StartDate)=datepart(mm,getdate()) AND datepart(yy,StartDate)=datepart(yy,getdate())) AND CalendarEvents.ModuleID = 360 ORDER BY StartDate ASC

Specific Event Types for the Current Day:

SELECT StartDate AS [Date and Time], CalCategoryName AS [Cls Type], Title AS [Closing Description] FROM CalendarEvents inner join CalendarCategories
on CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = CalendarCategories.CalCategoryID
where (CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 1 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 2 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 3 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 4 OR CalendarEvents.CalCategoryID = 20) AND (datepart(dd,StartDate)=datepart(dd,getdate()) AND datepart(mm,StartDate)=datepart(mm,getdate()) AND datepart(yy,StartDate)=datepart(yy,getdate())) AND CalendarEvents.ModuleID = 360 ORDER BY StartDate ASC

Your assistaince is much appreciated.

Joel

all your where sould be like this
WHERE datepart(dd,DATEADD(d,-3,StartDate))=datepart(dd,getdate()) AND datepart(mm,DATEADD(d,-3,StartDate))=datepart(mm,getdate())

cuz you need to set the Startdate-3 to get all the records you need
(p.s you were selecting all the event from today)

btw your forget the year in your query..better watch for next year...
