Re: Display todays date in access

I'm trying to display my date record so that the date is
shown as todays date, but am completely confused on how to
go about this. Plus I'm not that experienced with
access. Any simple solutions are greatfully received.

"my date record"?

Where do you want to display the date?

I'd suggest using a Form (rather than a table datasheet) to display
and work with data. On a Form you can include a Textbox with a Control
Source property

=Date()

to always display the current date, regardless of the table contents.
There is no way I can think of to have a field in a Table always
display today's date.
