IF THEN ELSE Query...

Happy New Year All!

I have 2 queries, a qry_HISTData and qry_RAWData. qry_RAWData is
automatically triggered from a subform using the "asofdate" of the
mainform as a date parameter. What I'm attempting is to have the
subform trigger qry_HISTData when the mainform's "asofdate" is older
than the current date. Is this possible? If so how? I thought
perhaps using IF THEN ELSE but I am unfamiliar with how to do this
using SQL. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I suppose you could put code similar to the following in the AfterUpdate
event of AsOfDate.

Dim strSource As String
strSource = IIF(Me.AsOfDate <=- Date(),"qry_RAWData","qry_HISTData")
Forms!MainFormName!SubFormName.Form.Recordsource = strSource
