help with making date in to table and form

[Ste]

Hi,

I would like to have current date automatically enter into a form that is
based on a table, so that from report I can tell how many records I have
entered for the day. If I use date() on the data entry form, would I get
the record changing the date whenever I happen to browse the data entry
form? That I don't want to happen.

What is the better way to keep track of the date on each record entering
without manually inputting the date onto the table through form?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

In your table design on the tab below you can set the default value to
date() for your particular field. Then when you insert a new record the
current date will be entered. This value won't change when you open the
table on another day.
