Displaying Current Date 1

[infinitx]

Hi,

This question has probably been asked before, but I couldn't find a forum here that deals with this subject.

My question is....how can I code a text box that displays the current date?

Thanks,
Alex

In the control source for the text box, type

=Date()

Thanks John!

I knew how to do it, but my problem was that I was putting "=Date()" as the default value in table design view! Now I just have a text box that is not linked to any table, with the default value "=Date()"!

Thanks again,
alex
