Summary:

To enter the current date in a Date field press COMMAND+- (HYPHEN). You can enter the current time into a field by pressing COMMAND+; (SEMICOLON).

Microsoft File version 2.00 enters the previous day's date when COMMAND+- is pressed.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in File version 2.00. This problem was corrected in File version 2.00a. To obtain the current version of File, call Microsoft End User Sales and Service at (800) 426-9400 or go to the Microsoft Web site http://www.microsoft.com/worldwide/default.htm
