have had and had
what is the difference between
have had
vs.
had
I can never decided which one I need to use.
for example:
I was wondering if you 'had' a chance to look at the documents I sent you.
and
I was wondering if you 'have had' a chance to look at the documents I sent you.
seem both alright to me. Are these two interchangeable?
