Get(currentdate) issues.

[stereophonic]

Hi all,

i'm having great trouble using get(currentdate) calculation, it outputs 734877. I'm not sure how it has came to this conclusion. The local date is Wednesday 9th Jan 2013.

I'm really after the date in dd/mm/yyyy format which is what the local machine is set to. Also the filemaker i'm using is delivered via citrix, if that makes any difference.

Thanks

Change the storage in the Calculation window to Date. That is a Number that is displayed now.

 

Your Operating System normally dictates how a date is displayed.
