Hi,
You should have a look to your date field’s properties in your report design: mix the differnet properties to have the format you want

Hello Thomas,
Unfortunately, changes in the fields properties do not help. The only thing I am able to do is to change the sequence of day, month and year.
Though, the month is still displayed as a number (10), not in form of letters (Oct).
Hope you can help.

Hi Ludwig,
Just go to the report design n choose the date field…
Under properties u can find “Date Month” , In that choose the following “Short name (first three letters)”.
This will help u …

Hello Madhan,
Thank you for that information.
What you describe works perfectly in Standard reports.
Yet, in the report I have to adjust, another developer used a ‘date2Str’ function where he calculates a date value.
I can change the sequence of the DAY, MONTH and YEAR fields that are printed on the report.
Yet, I have no idea how to convert this string into a date field that shows the short name of the month.
Do you have any suggestions?
Ludwig
