August 5, 201114 yr I am attempting to limit selection of calendar days to only use "Friday" and only in the future and not in the past. Is it possible to do this with Filemaker's built-in calendar drop down using conditional formatting? If so, can someone help me with how the calculation might look? If not, can you share your thoughts? Thanks
August 5, 201114 yr it possible to do this with Filemaker's built-in calendar drop down I don't think so. But you could have a value list of n upcoming Fridays.
August 5, 201114 yr Author Yes, but wouldn't that require me to constantly update from year to year? Could it be done in validation? I could get it to keep from entering dates in past, but could it also be written to select Fridays only?
August 5, 201114 yr wouldn't that require me to constantly update from year to year? No. Could it be done in validation? You could do validation - but it wouldn't prevent users from selecting ANY day. Then they would get a validation error message, which can be pretty annoying.
