Edit Widget and a date field question?

[VenusScott]

My database has an "update date" field in it. It contains the last date a change was made by a user. The record may not have been edited for years and now needs to be updated. The date object show the date 12/1/2004. Is there a way for me to make the date todays date and then when the user clicks the OK button it saves today's date? Right now they have to scroll through 'years' and then 'dates'. Ideas?

I think I answered my question. It does not look like there is any way to do this based on the available tags . . . bummer.
