Hi,
you can set uo default value on the "Edit as" settings dialog on the Visual Editor tab.
If you want to display this values only use custom format on the "View as" settings dialog on the Visual Editor tab.

but I will compute a new date and it depend on a value of another field in date format
for example Field 1 = 01.01.2008 -> Field 2 should be 14 days after -> 15.01.2008

To calculate this value when record is added or updated use Before record added or Before record updated events.
