Im using the validation rule ">=(Now())" to ensure the date entered in the field is today onwards only. However, this rule does not allow todays date to be entered. How can i get it to accept todays date but not previous dates?
This is part of my a-level coursework, so if you can help me it would be great...
cheers.
