I am using Access 2007 and run a newsletter for a local Elks club. Each monthly issue must contain a list of people's names who have their birthday on that given month. I am trying to generate a query to make this happen but am confused while trying to use the date function.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

date() - Day(date()) + 1

Jumps to the first day of this month

Now use the dateadd function to do the rest

That's great!! Thank you. Now let me be a real pain and ask you what is the dateadd function? And do I use both in the Criteria box on the query window?
