I created a Math Column for Today’s Date  
Now is replaced with the column “Today,” which is a Date and Time Column

However this Date and Time Column only shows today’s date on the first row, not throughout the column.  
How do I get today’s date to appear throughout the column opposed to the first row only?

Thanks

Use the special “Now” value in your Math column.

Thanks now, how do I make this Today’s Math Column into a Today’s Date and Time Column, for future calculations (date difference)
