incrementing date searches

Hi,

There is a clerical task that I perform in URP3 every week, assuming I remember to do it.

I have an advanced search that looks for the following:

date created: date-n
date modeified: date-n
due date: date-n
flag: not completed

I then copy this advanced search repeatedly for a given month, changing date-n to date-n+1, and for the next one, date-n+2, etc. Thus, each week, I have a new batch of advanced searches that will locate all instances of items that were created on date-n+m, that were modified on date-n+m, or that are due on date-n+m, which have not yet been completed.

To create these advanced searches, I have to double-click each of the fields to call up the calendar, then search for the right date, and use reasonably fine motor control to click that date.

What would be nice is if there was a way for URP to "understand" this task and let me increment an advanced search by 1 day (or one week, or one month, etc.) so that I don't have to manually do it.

It's repetitive; it's rule based; seems to me that it should be doable. Of course, I'm not a programmer, so what do I know? But just maybe it could be done?

Regards,
Bal
