Today 's date does not show everyday 'date

Featured Replies

Dear All,

I have try to put Today or status(currentdate) to show date of each day.

Let say I want to see . today is 2002-10-2, and tomorrow it will show

2002-10-3 and so on.

I use Today or status(currentdate) , it always give me 2002-10-2.

Do you know why?

Thanks

You must close and reopen the database for the Today function to update.

It is on the host ...so I close from the host and reopen it?

Thanks

Exactly. Make sure to open it in a normal copy of Filemaker Pro (not Filemaker Server) as this is the only way to update the Today function.

You are much better off swtiching the Today functions over to Status ( CurrentDate ) which does not require this daily update. Today function predates the Status () functions and is simple a backwards compatibity issue.
