# DateCreated Property (ADOX)
Indicates the date the object was created.  
  
## Return Values  
 Returns a **Variant** value specifying the date created. The value is null if **DateCreated** is not supported by the provider.  
  
## Remarks  
 The **DateCreated** property is null for newly appended objects. After appending a new [View](../../../ado/reference/adox-api/view-object-adox.md) or [Procedure](../../../ado/reference/adox-api/procedure-object-adox.md), you must call the [Refresh](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/refresh-method-ado.md) method of the [Views](../../../ado/reference/adox-api/views-collection-adox.md) or [Procedures](../../../ado/reference/adox-api/procedures-collection-adox.md) collection to obtain values for the **DateCreated** property.
