    Date function

    I seem to have a slight problem. I just upgraded a database From access 2010 to access 2013 and for some reason the =Date() function does not work In the field Date. Is there something else I can do?

    My first thought is a reference problem:

    Oh, and hopefully you don't have a field with the name "date"?

    It can confuse Access in that it won't know if you're referring to the field or the function. I'd still check the reference issue.
