input mask for date

[[email protected]]

Hello to all...

It's my first date here...

How can i set an input mask in FM 5.5??

Like DD/MM/YYYY? i used that in Foxbase.. it's more simply to input date in that way...

Thanks...

You could create separate fields for each section (i.e. Day, Month, Year), then create a calc field that puts it all together (TextToDate...) and returns a Date.

Just a thought.
