I have a Date Printed field which, when the Print button is pressed, spits out the date and time (not when it was printed, but actually the form was last opened, which is better than nothing).

Is there a way to add that functionality to the Signature Field??

This is important. If there is some other way to tie in a date/time to the Signature Field being implemented I need to know it yesterday!

I am learning how to add scripts to fields in the console... so if you have script info, do let me know where to put it because not everyone is a programmer or scripter.

Thanks to any and all who can help. I can't possibly be alone in this issue....

You can add a script to the Exit instance on the Signature Field that will populate the date field with the date. Here is the script I use:

var date = new Date();
dateFieldName.rawValue = (date.getMonth()+1) + "/" + date.getDate() + "/" + date.getFullYear();

You will need to add time script if you want it also.
