Input date when field is modified

Featured Replies

Hi,

I have a feeling this is probably very easy, but I can't seem to make it happen.

I'd like to create a field that inputs today's date when field "A" is modified. I'm not looking for a record modification date, just a field modification date. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Tiger

you can create a date field and then on the option part you can set the Auto-Enter as "Modification Date". So that when the current record was modified, then it will set the date as modification date.

Regards,

Henry

Take a look at these example files.
