Gettin todays date

[superstevie]

Hi everyone,

i've tried to do a search on here, but can't find an answer. I want to create a field that is global and shows today's date. I can get modified, and created, but I can't find a way to do it so it updates as soon as the day changes.

The rest for this is i have some calculations I'd like to do, to show how many days since a service call has been logged.

Thanks in advance!

You don't need a global field with the date. Use // on your layouts and Get (CurrentDate) in your calcs, making sure they are set to NOT be stored.

Thank you for your reply. I don't deal with databases day in day out, only when we need to update things so i might have a few more questions.

I got it working by the way, so thank you again :
