Anyone know how I can insert the current date without the user knowing it
so as I can use it as a filter in the Advanced Recordist Query, please!

Regards Frank

In Access, make the default value of the field Date() or Now(), in SQL Server use GETDATE().

Frank, you can use this method also for updating records with default date:
