I need HELP! Project due TODAY.

New Here ,
Oct 12, 2016 Oct 12, 2016

I need HELP! I am creating form in which a date range is requested in the form. I went in to properties of that field and selected "Custom" under "Date" under "Format" and entered "mm/dd/yy to mm/dd/yy". In the example field, it's showing up as "mm/dd/yy ao mm/dd/yy". Also, when I preview the field, even if I place the date in as set up in the settings, a dialog box pops up and tells me I'm entering wrong. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong!? Also, how can I get the "mm/dd/yy to mm/dd/yy" to show up in the field so the user doesn't have to guess to start???

There's no built-in command that does that for you. It requires the development of a custom-made validation script.

Hi.

You need to escape characters that are not metacharacter with a backslash, like this:

mm/dd/yy \t\o mm/dd/yy
