Format$(Date) in Actuate
- Thread starter asrinath
- Start date
Date$ returns a 10-character string in the form mm-dd-yyyy, where mm represents the current month (01-12), dd the day (01-31), and yyyy the year (1980-2036).
You can use the Format$( ) function to format the date numerous ways (ie Format$(Date, "dd/mm/yy"
; Format$(Date, "General Date" etc). As it is a string that is returned, you can use a text control; however, it is usually better to keep dates in date controls.
