Thank you Eliot for all yr patience. I've come to find out this is like a rubik's cube, you can never figure it out ... but refuse to put it down 'til ya get it right <g>
Today's question has got to be easier:
I've got the &get_date in my &db_def (see below), but thought it was supposed to throw today's date in there automatically. What I see is what I go to add is ... &get_date in the Date field, :-0. Unless I manually type in 11-Sep-99, I get the error ...
What am I missing?
%db_def = (
'ID' => [0, 'alpha', 5, 8, 1, '', '' ],
'Date' => [1, 'date', 12, 15, 0, '&get_date', '' ],
'Year Grad' => [2, 'numer', 4, 4, 0, '', '' ],
'Last Name/Married Name' => [3, 'alpha', 20, 50, 1, '', '' ],
'First Name/Nickname' => [4, 'alpha', 20, 50, 1, '', '' ],
'Address (Street, City, State/Country, ZIP/APO/FPO, Phone' => [5, 'alpha', '40x3', 500, 0, '', '' ],
'Email' => [6, 'alpha', 20, 50, 0, '', '' ],
'Homepage/URL' => [7, 'alpha', 20, 50, 0, '', '' ],
'Comments' => [8, 'alpha', '40x3', 500, 0, '', '' ],
'UserID' => [9, 'alpha', -2, 15, 1, '', '' ]
);
