System Date

[Vincent]

I want the computer to read off the system date and put it
into the database. How do I accomplish this?

Use the built-in functions:
Date()
Time()
Now()

Ex.
Text1.text = Date()

Hi Vincent,

depends on what you mean by 'put it into the database'.

You need to look at using the Date() function (in the
Default Value of a Table field or Form control) to return
just todays date, or you could use Now() to return the
current date and time.
