I have a form called participant. I data enter a date into a field called
StartDate. I would like to have that same date automatically be set as a
default in another field called InitialContactDate.

Can it be done and if so how?

Thanks.

JoeP

For the AfterUpdate event of the field, put code like:

Private Sub StartDate_AfterUpdate()

Me!InitialContactDate = Me!StartDate

End Sub
