Using a formula for this scenario won't accomplish what you want. What you need is code behind the form to set the value when the user saves changes, e.g.:

Function Item_Write()
Item.UserProperties("Last Updated") = Date()
End Function

Er, I forgot to elaborate what the "problem" is. Whenever I make a change to
one of the pages of the form that doesn't contain this custom field, the
value doesn't get updated.

Hi there,

I've added an extra page to the standard Contacts Form to include a few
extra fields, one of them for the "Last Updated" date. I set the Properties
for this field so that the initial value is Date(), and then check calculate
this formula automatically.

Whenever I visit that page and make a change, the Last Updated field gets
updated with the current timestamp. So far, so good.

The problem (I think) appears to be when I make a change to one of the OTHER
pages of the form, but not that page with the custom field.

Is there a way to set the field on one page to automatically update whenever
ANY part of the entry is updated?

Thanks,
Keith
