Need to get Created date in one of the input field

Hi Guyz,

I am new to Access Databases. My question looks to be very simple.
I have created a textbox.I want to display the creation date of the file in that box.
What needs to be done. ?

I have given Format attribute as 'Long date' and the Control Source as '=Now()'.
But it is giving me the current date only. But I want the creation date.

Can anyone helpe me out ?It is kind of urgent.

Regards,
SP.

Remove the expression = now() from the control source property and place it in the default value property of the textbox. That should place the date and time in the control at the time the record is created. The default value should not change unless it is overridden by the user. If you want to prevent it from being overridden, you need set the "enabled" property of the textbox to no.
