How do I get the date on a form to =now() after I select a check box?

Place a text box where you wish the now() to show up as per your image.

Then in the onclick event of the checkbox use similar to the following code:

Private Sub Check75_Click()
Me.txtbox = Now()
End Sub

You can set the value using the AfterUpdate event of the Check Box. It can be done by macros or VB.
Macros:
Select the CheckBox --> Field Property Sheet --> Event --> Macro Builder --> Show All Actions. Now you use the SetValue action where the Item is the Name of the field you want to populate the Now() with, and Expression is Date().
