Guru Salem Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hello everyone, when i use Get(Current Date) function its show right date format as based on system format. But set field to the "text" field its show the wrong format.. I want to set the same date format to the text field: Example: My system format is "dd/mm/yyyy".. when i put this to date to text field, Its show as "mm/dd/yyyy" Is that make sense and How do i resolve this issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Apparently, this is not a file you've created by yourself, but inherited from someone using the mm/dd/yyyy date format. Unfortunately, setting the file to "Always use current system settings" in File Options does not work perfectly. Your best option is to save a copy of the file as a clone (no records) and import your data into the clone. Incidentally, why are you setting a text field to a date? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guru Salem Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 The purpose is some time I want to see particular date and sometime i want to see all dates. So when I sent as "All" & CreateDate.. then can do filter all record as well as particular date. Am I correct ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did cloning the file resolve your problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
