What is the code I use to update modify_date when a record is updated using submit button.

I have made my field as Hidden ie date_modifiedH and I have a label field date_modified.

Best way is to have a hidden field on your form that contains the modified date, and then in the BeforeBuildUpdate do something like this

With applic_topic1.Datasource
' the standard values that must be set for an INSERT
.Create_Datetime.value = now()
.Create_User_Id.value = Session("UserID")
.Change_Datetime.value = Now()
.Change_User_Id.value = Session("UserID")
.Version_No.Value = 0
End With


Hope this helps

Dave

I like to use the Custom Insert/Update properties for this. Just add the
'modified date' field to list list of form fields that are there by default
and put in an Expression-type value, which calls the Now function (or
whatever you need). No hidden field is required.

True DonB..

But does'nt that require the programmer to type the whole update SQL statement into the SQL textbox. With my suggestion you can easily modify one or two fields out of say 30.

Often when one has very large froms with lots of fields then creating the SQL can be a real pain when CCS does it easily for you in code.

If you have a better way of getting that SQL into the text area then please let me know.

Many Thanks

Dave

No SQL required to be written at all. Just create the Custom Update/Insert
of type 'Table', then revise the list of fields you get by default (matching
all those present in the form) to add one more column for the date. Make it
an "Expresson" and put the appropriate value or function in the Expression
textbox. Whatever you enter there is executed as ASP code, not SQL, so put
in 'Now' to get the current date/time. Whatever it evaluates to is what's
stuffed into the SQL statement and stored in the database.
