I am working on Access 2003, and I am trying to figure out how I can store
historical dates of when a given record was edited/modified.  Any help you
provided would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

A CreatedDate field can be set automatically by setting the
field's DafaultValue property to =Date() or =Now()

A ModifiedDate field can use the form's BeforeUpdate event
to set the value of the field:
    Me.ModifiedDate = Date
