In Access 2000, the expression "= Date()" entered for the default value for a control on a form or report does not work.  I have entered this in the properties page in design view.  Most other internal functions don't seem to work either.  Now() does... but why doesn't date()???
 
From Author: it appears that my database was funky.  I created a new one and re-imported all objects; works ok. Perhaps there is a reason for the problem as stated... If anyone knows, feel free to respond.
 
See Microsoft support KB article Q194374 it helped me when my date function stopped working.Took me a long time to find the problem
