I have a cfinput date field on the form, I have value from my query like "#myquery.Mydate#", but it gives me {ts .....} format,

Are there an yway to set the date format using short date format?

Your help and information is great appreciated,

    Sounds like your <INPUT> tag is not within a <CFOUTPUT>.  You could also change the <INPUT> to a <CFINPUT> to get it to evaluate the CF expressions.

    <input type="date" name="MyDate" id="MyDate" value="#DateFormat(#MySp.MyDate#, "Short")#"/>

    I have above code, but the date field shows

    #DateFormat(#MySP.MyDate#), not the format date information return from my data source.

    Thanks again for helping,

    Regards,
