you can do "30 days from next week" too. But 30d or 37d is much faster
for most people to type. All the time or date fields except snooze
reminders accept either shortcuts or natural language text.

Another interessting way to do this is to write "in 30 days" or "in a
week"
in a date field. This is of course calculated from the current date, so it
is
not as flexible as the original solution. You can also write "christmas
eve",
"new years day" and similar phrases.

In a law office, we have to calculate from a date of filing either 30,
60 or
90 days from a certain date to calendar another due date item. Is
there a
way for Outlook to auto calculate 90 days from a date entered?

Thank you so much for your help!
