May 29, 200520 yr I have a FM7 database with several date fields in the yyyy/mm/dd format I need to get to standard mm/dd/yyyy format. The computer system default is mm/dd/yyyy. The file was probably originally an excel file import. When I try by changing the date format in the layout mode (from leave as entered), the result is a ?, which reverts to the previous yyyy/mm/dd format when clicked upon. Is there no way to change this easily, short of a complex multistep find and replace operation?
