You could do this in a form and use the PDetType control's AfterUpdate event.
Otherwise, you can do this at the table level with a query that scans
PDetType and updates the other fields. The key is linking the tables
together properly. If you do this in an update query, use the criteria
IsNull([NWCInvolveDate]) so that old data is not overwritten. If you do this
in a form with the AfterUpdate event, try something like:
If Me.PDetType = "DO" Or Me..PDetType = "SC" Then
Me.NWCInvolveDate = Date
End If
