I created a fillable form - one of the fields is a 'date' field. On my machine, I enter the numeric date. On my client's machine, a dropdown appears on the date field from which you can select the date. Why is this?

I will check on the versions I have , and what my client has. One last comment - when I noticed the date dropdown at my client site, the initial date, I believe, was January 2001. Is there a way to set the dropdown to display the current date? Thank you again for your help.

So... your client’s software is up to date, and your software is old.
