When you use ="ANLDate" + 25 you are trying to add a number to a text string
and that don't work. It would be =[ANLDate] + 25 but that will not work as
the default is used when a new record is created and [ANLDate] is null upon
creation of a new record.
There is no reason to store the calculation as you can always do it in a
query or report.
