Is DateAdd usable as a date??

I have a query that creates a date based on another date using the dateAdd
function. It looks like a date and you can do DatePart functions on it, etc.
BUT when you try to set up select using this field, I get a data type
mismatch error. It doesnt matter if you put in as a prompt and enter
something like 1-1-05 or hard-type it in the criteria line as 1-1-05,
#1/1/05#, etc.

What's with this function??? It walks like a duck, quacks like a duck but
it won't swim like a duck....

Best to a helpers!

Show us the query that is giving you the problem. DateAdd produces a date
value that can be used directly.
