Command Button

[magic43]

I am creating a quick and easy "Job Logging" Database, where we enter
incoming jobs; where they come from; who they are from; date received; and
when the order is filled, when they are logged out. I would like to use a
Command button to "log out". My objective is to be able to have a specifice
job on the screen and then click the "log job out" button and have ACCESS
automatically enter the current date in the "DATE OUT" box for that job. I
don't know how to tell the command button to enter the current date in that
box, is there a macro? Can anyone walk me through it?

Puffin,

Make a macro with the SetValue action. For the arguments of the macro...
Item: [Date Out]
Expression: Date()

Assign this macro on the On Click event property of the command button.
