I'm very new with writing queries and procs for SQL 2005

I'm create and site for our Demo Customers, with fake data, which I was always to be up-to-date

So I was hoping to create a proc to run weekly and update all the date fields to be +7 days.

Is this possible, if so how

Thanks in advanced

We have a SQL job like that for our demo system.

You simply run UPDATE statement for each table you want to update. Here's an example:

UPDATE Table1
SET SomeDateTimeColumn = DATEADD(d, 7, SomeDateTimeColumn)
