Inserting today's date in a form?

A shipping log form has many rows; each row represents an individual shipment
on an individual day.

One of the table cells in each row, is Date Shipped.

I wanted to use a Text Form Field, set to "Current Date" so as uses ship
items, they won't have to type in the day's date.

But if I place "Current Date" Text Form Fields in the Date Shipped cell for
each row of the table, they all display the date that I placed them there,
not the date(s) in the future when the user will use my form to log daily
shipments.

It would be more helpful if I could create a dropdown or some other device
that allowed the user to select "Date Shipped", and have today's date (on any
given day) get embedded in the cell.

How is this done? A quick look at the discussions didn't seem to unearth an
answer.
