This has me stumped, so I'm hoping you guys can assist with this?

I have a hidden field on my ASP page that contains the current server date. When the use clicks save, an insert statement adds the collected data to a table in Oracle 8.

I need to refine this. I want the hidden field to hold the current server date & time and insert this into the database. I can get this to work if I use 2 hidden fields (1 containing the date with the other containing the time). Thing is I want both the date & time in the date column.

Any suggestions will prevent further hair loss.

Set the default value of the field in the database to be the current date; thus letting the database engine do the work for you.

Thanks for guidance. I went ahead and did it this way.

Glad I could be of some help

And thank you very much for coming back and reporting how you went about resolving your issue!
