Auto Date for Field

[Joseph31]

hard one to ask but there might be a simple answer (I hope)

Setup:

FM Pro 8

Is there a way to make a filed have a date fill in automatically when a number gets entered into that a specific field?

I know how to do this by scrip by that is very cumbersome, is there a way to do this by calc?

The date field could have an auto-enter with calculated result ( Do not Replace unchecked ) of:

Let ( trigger = YourNumberField; Get (CurrentDate ) )

Thanks again

You should be able to do this in v8, unless you are looking for a reason to upgrade :giggle:
