If I understand you correctly, you're trying to create a formula that uses the date the item was created? It will always be None for a newly created item. Only when the item is saved does the Created date field get set.

hello,

using OUTLOOK 2003 under WIN2000 I have problems in designing contact
formulars with the field: "Date of generation" ("Erstellt");
Although the field is correctly listed in the changed formular, it is not
active, showing no date at all.

Does anybody know a solution?


greetings
