What type of column type to have for a date registered and/or how to change.

Currently I have a database with a timestamp NOT NULL column called date_reg, whenever I edit the record the time changes, I've tried to change the column type to datetime but I get an error “1067 invalid default value for date_reg mysql”.

 

As I understand it, if I have two timestamp columns only the first one is changed when a record is updated. I have the option of adding another timestamp column in front of the current timestamp column and call it last_edited, is there any other options?

 

Thanks
