Hi,

I have created a series of forms used for the raising and authorisation / rejection of purhcase orders.

How can I created a field in the forms, which populates the date the form was created i.e. the date the purchase order was raised.

This then needs to be ratianed throughout the authorisation procedure, without being over written if the PO is not authorised until a later date.

Thanks,

1) Add a label control to the form.

2) On the control's Properties dialog, on the View tab, create a new custom
field.

3) Set the initial value for that control to Date().
