Registration Page - adding values not on the registration page

I have a registration page.
When a person registers successfully, I would like to add information to their record in the database, specifically the timestamp at which they register and I also want to set certain variables to certain values (I would like to set a field called "active" to "1".
I believe that I should use events to do this. In the "Add page" I use the "Before Record Added" event to do this (using custom code) and it works very well.
However, I have tried to do the same thing with "Before registration" and "After successful registration" events but neither works.
I should add that the fields I want to act upon are not on the registration page - as I am using the default page generated by the system.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Andrew

Andrew,
what code do you use?

In general to save new values in the table use Before register event.

I believe I did try the Before Register event and created Custom Code as follows:
$values["field_name"] = "1";
I will try again
Thanks
