I think i have a general misunderstanding.
but first things first
Filemaker 8.5 on Moc osx
I try to find a specific month in a date field.
so if i go to the search mode, i can simply type *.10.2016 and it works
so if i try to do this with a calculation field
and type
If ( date = *.10.2016"; " ok" ; "not OK" )
it don`t work.
The only think that works is when i type a exact date like
If ( date = 12.10.2016"; " ok" ; "not OK" )
but how could i search just for a spesific monthe for instance.
