W.D. you hijacked the thread on experts AND posted to two lists at the same time. TSK tsk! :)

but to answer your question.

	the function TODAY was the way to get current date in FM6.
	the current time, I don't see a function in the docs (yes I still have fm6 docs)
	everything else can be calculated from text (in quotes) and field values.

	TODAY & " " & ?? & " " & left(user, 1) & ":¶"

Check your function list to see what time options you have.
