Hi All

I am currently evaluating Daylite3 and would like to get further information on Reports.

I want to create a custom date in the formatter box for the due date. I have tried to use the format d MMM yyyy but this doesn't seem to work.

Can anybody tell me whether there is a list of valid custom date format and how to create the custom date.

Thanks

Steff,

I found some relief regarding Custom Date formats in the Daylite Developer Kit. Look at the file in the kit titled "Daylite Data Description.pdf" and go to page 61 of 63. I used the formats in the "Description" column of the NSCalendarDate table to final sort-out Custom Date formats in the "Formatter" field when building Reports. I tried using the formats listed in the "Formatter" field and they all worked, or at least the several I tried worked. Hope this helps you until some usefull documeation is published for the reporter in Daylite.

Steff,

Hi Larry

Thanks very much for the information. I am now printing the concepts paper and will work through it later this week.
