Hi,

 

I have a problem. i want to show the current date and time in my tables of the database. I want to show it because i want to show it on my report generated in php.

 

By the way i do not have a "date" field in my form. Can anyone help me out?

 

Thanks,

Heshan.

If all you need is to have the query return the current date and time when the query is run, so you can use it with php, use

SELECT `field1`, field2`, `field3`, NOW() . . .

If you need to use the time the record was added/updated, you'll need to add a DATETIME field to the table to store the information.
