Default Adding a number to a date

I have a date field called {SaleDate \@ "MMMM d, yyyy"}. I need to add
14 days to that date and have it return as a date in my document.

For example, if {SaleDate \@ "MMMM d, yyyy"} = September 1, 2005, then I
need to return the date September 15, 2005 in my document. Is this possible?

I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Nicole Vitale

This is very complicated to do using fields, but still possible. Most of the
work has been done for you at

SaleDate field for the Date field in the appropriate calculation and set the
date format where indicated.
