Default date question on Calender Control

[SteveGr]

When placing my Calender control on my form, I can't seem to have the default date show when opening the form. I thought this did it automatically. But how can I get it back?

 

[Rich]

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me!SelectDate.Today
End Sub

where do I put this code?

In the On Load event of the properties of the form that has the Calendar control

 

[SteveGr]

I put the code in properties "on load" of the form. but I get an error message can't find the field "select date" referred to in your expression.

SelectDate should be the name of your calendar control. If your calendar has another name substitue SelectDate with yours.
