Calculating fine due

Hi, i need to calculate the fine due for a book system. I have a date that the book needs to be back and a date of when the book was actually returned, and then a fine field. if the book is over 7 days late, it is £0.30, if the book is over 14 days it is another £0.30, if it is over 21 days, fine is an additional £0.40, if the book is over 28 days, fine is additional £0.50, if the book is over 56 days late, an additional £1.50 is charged.
i have tried using iif statements, however, due to the fact that it has other criteria, i cannot get it to work.
any help would be appreciated. thanks,awg

You can calculate the days late by creating the following query. Then once you get the number of days late you can do a select case statement to determine the fine amount.
Code:
Query to calcuate the days late
SELECT Table1.DueDate, 
           Table1.ReturnDate, 
           DateDiff("d",[DueDate],[ReturnDate]) AS DaysLate
FROM Table1;

Code:
Code to calcuate the fine.
After executing the query above and returning it into a recordset.

do until rs.eof
   Select Case rs("DaysLate")
      Case 7 To 13
         FineAmount = £0.30
      Case 14 To 20
         FineAmount = £0.30
      Case 21 To 27
         FineAmount = £0.40
      Case 28 To 55
         FineAmount = £0.50
      Case > 55
         FineAmount = £1.50 
   End Select

   Do your code here
   rs.movenext
loop
