Hello everyone, When an user creates a record like a new row on Glide table, I want a column informs about the new row’s creation date. I tried to make it with current time but the date changes everyday. I want the date blocked at the created date. How could do I do it ? Thank you ---

Sounds like you are using a computed column for the date? You should use a non-computed date/time column, and populate that with the current date/time as each new row is created. > **[Current Date/Time | Glide Docs](https://www.glideapps.com/docs/reference/values/current-date-time)** > > Submit the current date and time automatically. ---

Where do I find the non-coputed column ? I created a basic Date/tome as you can see on the picture. And I created an action as you can see on the second picture. But it does seem to work. How could I do it ?

Don’t use Set Column values as an onSubmit action with a Form. Pass the date/time as a special value with the form. The document that I linked to tells you how to do this. ---
