Hi,<br />
<br />
Could not believe I couldn't find this on the web so sorry to ask. I just need to return the system date (so date at the time of running the query) as a value in a field. Can not for the life of me remember how to do this.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help.<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
