Subject: [OzMOSS] Create timestamp for column

I'm trying to give a hidden Title column a timestamp "yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss" or 
random value of some kind using its  Default value: Calculated value.

I've used - =DATE(YEAR(Today),MONTH(Today),DAY(Today)) - which gets accepted 
but returns nothing. The Today function doesn't appear to work and there 
doesn't seem to be a NOW equivalent or simple function to enter the seconds 
since epoch, or even a random number.

I can't delete or change the type for the Title column because the content type 
uses Item as a parent. Is there some other way to get the hyperlink/action 
functionality for a column? Or should I have started with another content type 
as parent?

Any suggestion (apart from creating extra columns) appreciated.

Ugh. Soz. Been a long week. :)
