Hello Jennifer, I looked Jamal's post and NOW() works the same way as current_date. I don't know what the difference is but I have always used NOW(). Here is your example: INSERT INTO `table123` ( `ID` , `CheckedIn`) VALUES ( NULL , NOW() ); Now you can retrieve the information using DATE_FORMAT select DATE_FORMAT(CheckedIn, '%Y%m%d') AS Date from table123 Hope this makes it clear. -- John
