Default Field Value

Hello,
I have a table with a filed set up to use a default Field value of
(GetDate()) but is also allowed nulls. However, The default value for this
field has stopped being set automatically. Has anyone experienced this
problem before? Does anyone know why and/or how to fix it?

Can you show us your query?
create table #t
(
i int not null primary key,
dt datetime null default getdate()--Allow Nulls
)
insert into #t (i) values (20)
select * from #t
insert into #t (i,dt) values (30,null)
select * from #t
drop table #t

|||Well, The main source of INSERTs to this table is a program that was written
in Delphi and uses ADO. The section that does the insert is the following
if you are familiar with it;
--Begin Code--
With ADOQuery1 do
begin
SQL.Text := 'SELECT * FROM [DTable] WHERE [ID] = 0;';
Open;
Insert;
FieldByName('PlanID').Value := PlanID;
FieldByName('ProvID').Value := ProvID;
FieldByName('VerifBy').Value := VerifBy;
FieldByName('VerifDate').Value := VerifDate;
FieldByName('Type').Value := DocType;
(FieldByName('Image') AS TBlobField).loadfromStream(Blob);
FieldByName('PacketIndexID').Value := PktID;
Post;
Close;
end;
--End Code--
The field in question is not in this code but should be set to the current
date/time when this bit is executed. Some other strange things are
happening with he ID field in this table too. The ID field is set to Auto
Increment by 1 but every time something is inserted it just by almost 200
sometimes. Any help with that issue would be greatly appreciated as well.
