how to get system date in as2

this not working

	var currdate:date = new date();
	txttest.text = currdate; box empty

also when find works, parse out yyyy mm , dd

have seen these examples, not sure @ point 1 work or both?

var currentdate=new date();

var month=currentdate.getmonth();

var day=currentdate.getdate();

var year=currentdate.getfullyear();

var mm = currentdate.month

var yyyy = currentdate.fullyear

var dd = currentdate.day

i need assemble date this: yyyymmdd, using date compares

if first code showed not displaying date, problem have done textfield... code works when textfield configured.

make sure assigning instance name textfield says instance name in properties panel. make sure color of text in textfield not same background color.
