Date Parameter Printing

[caymanuser]

Data is selected based upon a number of discrete dates entered via a parameter {?Dater} The selection works fine.I have the following formula to print the dates entered.

NumberVar Counter;
StringVar Message :="";
For counter := 1 to Count({?Dater}) Step 1 Do
(Message := Message & totext({?Dater}[counter],"mm-dd-yy&quot + ", "
Left(Message, Length(Message) - 2)

The result is as follows
mm-24-03, mm-10-03, mm-15-03

The dates entered were 03/24/03, 04/10/03, 05/15/03

Any help would be appreciated

Replace your fourth line of code as follows:

(Message := Message & totext({?Dater}[counter]) + ", "

Many thanks, It worked

Use capital M's for months.

Rather than use a loop, consider setting the default date display and using:

join({?Dater},", &quot

-k

Skip that...

I just realized you were using discrete values.

-k
