Autodelete item from list

[apeindex]

Hi

I'm a bit of sharepoint noob. So forgive me if this is stupid question or if it's in the wrong section.

I have a pretty basic WSS 3.0 site setup. I've created a simple list that's displayed on the front page showing who's on leave.

It displays 3 columns 1 of type Person or Group for the person on leave(duh ) and two date columns 1 for the start date of leave and one for the end date.

What I was wondering is whether it's possible/easy/hard to have an item automatically deleted from the list when the end date is reached.

I have some programming experience so if it comes to that I won't be put off too much. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, you can. Do you have SharePoint Designer? You will need to create a workflow that initiates automatically when the data is entered. Condition is If End Date equals Today then the Action would be Delete item in Vacation.

Vacation---or whatever your list name is.
