    Hey,
     
    I would suggest the following.
     
    Take any form go to Options\Regord info\Database log (see 1) - it doesnt matter if you have the database log active on this table.
    In the created date and time column the to date (see 2) is the current date. Check in visual studio how that was implemented and reuse the code.
    For the "From date" you could just delete the entry, which will imply being 01/01/1900
     
     
     
    Kind regards, Adis

    The date drop-down showing all dates is a system design and you won't be able to change it. However, you should be able to control it individually on tables. 
     
    By the way, like Amine said, you can validate the date.

    Hello,
     
    You could create a custom lookup form and filter out future dates.

    Hi @Adam123,
     
    it's better to use validation to prevent the user to select a future dates.
     
    for e.g. you can use the validateWrite in your table or datasoure in form :
    public boolean validateWrite()
{
    boolean ret;
	ret = super();
	
	if(this.yourDateField > SystemDateGet())
	{
		ret = checkFailed("your message here");
	}
	
	return ret;
}
    Best regards,
    Mohamed Amine MAHMOUDI
