Show current date and time

1. Open the form or report in Design view.
2. On the Insert menu, click Date And Time.
3. To include a date, select the Include Date check box, and then click a date format.
4. To include the time, select the Include Time check box, and then click a time format.

Note  Microsoft Access adds two text boxes, one to show the date and another to show the time, to the form or report and sets their ControlSource property to an appropriate expression. If there is a form or report header, Access adds the text boxes to that section. Otherwise, it adds the text boxes to the detail section. You can move, size, or position the text boxes and set their properties to customize their appearance.
