I was wondering is it possible to have a date entered into a field and automatically transfer to another form, or update the current date on the other form?

yup,
Im assumiong your going to be transferring from one text box to another, if both forms are loaded simply put in the code.

Forms![form name you have the date it]!chkmanager.Value = "name of the field on the current form you want the date to go to".value

I'm thinking the best place for this would be in the on load event for the form you want updated

reply if I confused you more,
