Display Format

edited November 2003 in General
Hi

Im using RB enterprise 6.03, just need some examples of display formats,
help is very thin on the ground. Specifically Im using a date field and I
need to format it, setting display format to DD/MM/YYYY does just that shows
each record as DD/MM/YYYY. What am i doing wrong? Could also do with
examples of formatting for numeric values.

Many Thanks


Gary

    Hi Gary,

    For future reference, please post new questions as a new thread so we can
    find and answer them as efficiently as possible.

    To see an example of all the display formats for dates that we currently
    have built in to ReportBuilder, check out the DisplayFormat dialog by
    selecting it from the popup menu of a component.

    You can also create your own display format using the same rules used in
    Delphi. For a detailed description on creating display formats as dates,
    check out the Delphi help on the TDateTimeField.DisplayFormat property.
