having date apear on a report

[DBritter]

I have a letter that I would like the current date to appear on the top.
I inserted [=Date()] in the default value for the field it was working fine and now it asks for the date parameter as the report is brought up.

My question is that I would like the date to appear at the top of the letter as "December 12, 2001". how do I accomplish this?

Set the Control Source of the text box containing the date as =Format(Date(),"mmmm d"", ""yyyy&quot. Terry
