Default Question on MS Query in Excel

I have a spreadsheet that has an MS Query embedded in it.
The query pulls from a database and then returns the data
to the excel spreadsheet. I have a field that I'm
prompted for called Received Date. Right now, when I open
the spreadsheet I get a dialog prompting me for the date.
What I want to do is change this to automatically use the
current date.

I right click on the data in the spreadsheet and select
edit query. Here is where I need help. I can't seem to
pinpoint the syntax to use today's date. I've tried
=Today()
=Date

and so on. Can any one tell me how to do this?
Thanks
Bill
