Hi,

 

Anyone know how to do this?

 

I have a text box with a Date in it (long date read from saved Smartobject record). so used Custom Style on the Text box and set it to Short date so 01/01/2016

 

But i then want to transfer that SHORT date from the Text Box into a SET PROPERTIES of a CONTROL Text Detail

 

I drag over the Text box to the Text detail on a Check box control , but when i run the form, the control displaying the Long Date

 

How do you get the "short date" into the Check Control Box Text field?

Hi Sharpharp1

 

Can I suggest you use an expression. Create an expression that uses the DateFormat function and  pass in the Date text box and enter the date format you want (e.g. dd/MM/yyyy). Then when you do the data transfer you select the expression and not the Date text box.

 

 


Thanks Andrew, i did just that and it worked.

 

Thanks again
