How to Return the Current Date

[NuttyMoose]

Hello Everyone,

I am having some trouble with a very simple thing ... Returning the Current Date in to a field. I need to use it in an equation.

I am using

Get( CurrentDate )

But this return the wrong date?

Also, If anyone knows the qeuation to add 45 days to the current date I also would be greatful

Thank you

Have you set up this field to unstored?

Get( CurrentDate ) + 45 is all you need. Make sure that the calculation is a date.

ok, I have done that...but for some strange reason I get a different date... So I just tried Get (CurrentDate) and still the wrong date...

COuld my system date be wrong?

Is the Calculation being Stored? If so, turn it off.

What date are you getting for today plus 45 if it isn't 9/26/2004?
