Hello

I'll try to be as clear as possible.

I need help with the current date. I have a field which is called CURRENT_DATE, I want when I open my layout as the current date is displayed in my fields current_date. That is what I do as shown in the help .I right click on my field and on the menu I choose "Setup Button", I click on "Perform Script" and I click on "specify". Now I select my script "DateX". My script contains the following code, "[color:red]Insert Current Date [select; MyTable:: current_date]" ... But nothing happens I can not see my current date displayed on my layout. Why... is it possible to do that.

Thanks and sorry for my bad english

Sylvain.

Make the filed a Calculation, result as Date, and Unstored.

Calculation = Get (CurrentDate)

Or just type // on the layout.

I was going to suggest that too, but he has already gone to the trouble of creating a field for it. :giggle:

He also has a script - couldn't you find some use for that? :
