Probably. How about this:

global gCurrentDay

on startMovie
  gCurrentDay = the systemDate.day
end


> on exitFrame me
                
>    today = the systemDate
        if today.day <> gCurrentDay then
>      tm = today.month
             td = today.day
>      ts = today.year
          
>      tm1 = string(tm)
>      td1 = string(td)
>      ts1 = string(ts)
> 
> 
             member("theMonth").text = tm1

>      member("theDay").text = td1
> 
>      member("theYear").text = ts1
        end if
>    go the frame

>  end

        Cordially,
