[AccessD] Problems with Date()

I have a bunch of reports which are really letters and I want them to
have today's date on them when it's run. No problem.  I put a textbox on
the report and set the control source as "=Date()".  Works fine on my
machine.  Doesn't work on other machines.  I have a very different set
up than the other machines so I don't even know where to look. Any ideas
on what might be causing the report to pop up with a dialogue box saying
"Enter Date" (as if I was asking for an input parameter) when I run the
report?    Note:  Office XP, 2002 file format.
