If it is a html page,
- setting your html page local language/lcid should control the date format
- or you can get a current date with JavaScript code and use that in a hidden form field
With a server side script form page (.asp) you could just enter a formatted date in the hidden form field value using say
<% = Month(Date()) & "/" & Day(Date()) & "/" & Year(Date()) %>

| The team is actually using the "Timestamp" option in the "Options for Saving
| Results to Database" menu.
|
| The intent is to time/ date stamp each form that is submitted by our user
| group. Each submission results in a different date format.
|
| Is there a better way to accomplish this?
