Set Default Date in Edit Widget??

Question

I hope this is an easy question...but how would I go about setting the default date for a date field in the edit widget???  It is currently set (out of the box) as 12/29/1899...

Thank you so much.

You set this in the MXD by setting a default value for the date field in the editing template.
