Putting date into form as default value isn't working

[jokobe]

I'm trying this:

Forms!tblservices!servicedatum.DefaultValue = Date

Access keeps deleting the brackets () and even worse: it is not working.
Within the field servicedatum "Name?" is shown, also in the property box
for the field the actual date is shown as the default value.

Any helpful hints? And anyhow, thanks in advance..
