Auto update Date field?

Is there a way to make a date calculation auto update to the current date? The get(current date) function only works when the record is created.

Make the calculation unstored. You can do that by opening Define Database, double-clicking on the calculation field and then clicking the Storage Options button. You'll then see the option to "do not store calculation results...".

This setting will make the calculation evaluate agin each time the screen refreshes. Screen refresh occurs in many scenarios such as mode change, record change, layout change, etc.
