Question : SQL - Date calulation from current date

I need to calculate when a video is overdue.  I have the query setup to show which videos have a null field in the In_Date column.    What is missing is calculating the Out_Date and the current date to show a video checked out more than 10 days.  I have included the pseudo code at the end of the query. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Code Snippet:

1: 2: 3: 4: 5:

SELECT Employees.First_Name, Employees.Last_Name, VideoList.Video_Name, Detail.In_Date, Detail.Out_Date FROM Employees INNER JOIN Detail ON Employees.EmployeeID = Detail.EmployeeID INNER JOIN VideoList ON Detail.VideoID = VideoList.VideoID WHERE (Detail.In_Date IS NULL) and Out_date is more than 10 days from Now()

JohnMac328,

I see.  In the DATEDIFF expression, try putting Out_Date in the second position, and GETDATE() in the 3rd.  I
think I misunderstood the requirement.

DATEDIFF(day, Out_Date, GETDATE()) > 10
