Is it possible to have a checkbox updated based on whether a date is in the future/past?

 

For instance, is it possible for an Expired checkbox to appear as ticked (true) if the date is before today without having to modify a record?  We would like the checkbox update to happen at 12:01am automatically.

    If this could be a read-only field (ie, you can't change it separately from the Expiration date), then you can use a Formula Field.

     

    In Summer '13, you'll be able to have a Checkbox Formula field, but until then, you have to use a Number or Text Formula, something like:

     

    IF(TODAY() > Expiration_Date__c,"Expired","Active")

     

    Then you could filter on that field.
