Is it possible yet to set the default date to “today” when a new record is added?

Hi, Maria
Good point!
I agree that when you have ‘Today Date’ field you don’t want to select today’s date each time. It would be great if we can set ‘Default’ value for Date, Date & Time fields as ‘Today’ or ‘Now’.
Thanks for your good suggestions.
We will get back to you ASAP once it will be implemented.

DabbleDB actually handles a variety of options for dates and times, either when setting default values, or when searching.
They include “today,” “yesterday,” “tomorrow,” and “next week.”
So, for example, when adding a new task, the default start date can be set to “today” and the default due date could be automatically set to “next week.”
Here’s some info: http://dabbledb.com/help/index/date_and_time_values

Thanks, Maria
It is definitely makes sense to have all this options too.
We will do it for you.
Other users will enjoy it too, for sure.
Thanks!
Hi,
We’ve implemented it.
Please, go to menu Forms. Create Date or Time field and click on ‘Default’ link. You will be able to select ‘Yesterday’, ‘Today’, ‘Tomorrow’, ‘Next week’.
When you select one of this options it will be automagically be converted to date or time when you adding records to your database.
Hopefully this is what you wanted.
Thanks!
