I am creating a form template and want to have Today() as the default
date for the Date field, without using a macro. I tried {today()} or
the {DATE \@ "yyyy-mm-dd"} or {TODAY \@ "YYYY-MM-DD"}, but it always
prompts for a valid date when closing the dialog. Any help would be
appreciated.

Thanks gurus....
