In microsoft access, there is a property to set default value.

Is there any way to set the default value for the textbox in vb 2005 to set current date for the default (if not use datetimepicker), so when a row is added, the value for a field is today().

Hi,

You can try this:

Dim dt As DateTime

dt = DateTime.Today

Me.TextBox1.Text = dt.ToShortDateString()

Hope that helps.

Hello,

if your textbox is bound: before you add the new row you must set the default value of the column to which the textbox is bound to 'Now'

if your textbox is not bound: when you need it you manually set the 'Text' property of the textbox to 'Now'.
