Umm ... just throwing this out and hope someone does all the heavy lifting? (Like I should talk) You'll probably want an update trigger to not allow updates if that date field is populated. That is one way to only "allow users to enter data only once in a day". A unique constraint won't do that. Perhaps your phrasing or my understanding of it is off though. The update trigger should be supported back to version 8. Don.
