Date field

[Loi]

Hi,

It is convenience if the Visited Date field in the DATA
ENTRY form will be automatically populated today date.



I have a DATA ENTRY form which is ready for entering
information. I like all text boxes are empty, except
Visited Date which will show the current date.

-------------------------
For example,
Name:

Visited Date: 05/24/04 ( I wish it will be automatically
populated today date in the text box)

Thank you
Loi

put =date() in the default value.

Open the Form in design view; select the textbox bound to this field.
View its Properties, and set the Default property of the textbox to

=Date()
