[Quoted] [Quoted] We've recently converted forms from version 3.0 to 4.5 and noticed [Quoted] that the format mask (for date fields) mm"/"dd"/"yyyy no longer works correctly unless you completely enter all the necessary information. What I mean is: in version 3 we could enter the date January 1, 1997 as 01011997 and the format mask would mask as 01/01/1997 and record in the database as 01-JAN-97. In version 4.5 entering the date as above the mask appears as 01/11/0097. Anyone else have similiar situation and gotten a work around other than entering the dashes (no big deal but a bother to our data entry personnel.) Received on Wed Sep 17 1997 - 00:00:00 CEST
