I figured out how to do what I wanted to do. I created a table - DATE, listed it as a date field , then opened the browser (no data in the browser), right clicked in the browser and a dialog box came up, I clicked 'PICK FIELDS' in the dialog box and then I clicked "ASSIST" in the next box and put the expression "currentdate( )" and the current date was put in the table and I inserted this table into the layout table calling up the window with the browser name. Figured I would share it as long as I asked. > -----Original Message----- > From: Talkofsky GS09 Stuart H > Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2000 10:34 AM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: Footers, etc > > Just wondering, is there a way to put an automatic footer in the Layout > window, such as the date and time or any other information?
