i need a method to store an expiry date. i have a column prepared in my table but i do not know how to reach the desired result.
the date will always be different depending on certain criteria
the course length. some courses we have are valid for a month. some for 6 months. some for a year and some for only 14 days.
i can use the date add to add the date period to the purchase date but i do not know where or how to store course length to be able to use it.
i have approached this before and i had a column in my courses table as below
("m",3,Date())
i pland on haveing this type for each course and varying it as applicable but this did not work and apparantley i was breaching the fundamental rules of relational data.
do how do i do it.
i am open to all suggetions.
thank you
