------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Dec 7 06:12:43 -0800 2006 ------- note: In the bug doc, the pattern field is bound to a date column, and the masks are setp up as if they it should take a DD.MM.YY date. This is conceptually impossible to work properly: All what the pattern field knows is - it is bound to a date column - it has an edit mask NNLNNLLL it has a literal mask __.__.06 With this information, it cannot decide how to convert a given string into a date, or vice versa. It could guess (but that would be quite some kind of magic already) that the dots are separators, and the __ resp. the 06 should denote day, month, and year. But which one is which? No chance to know this. So, now that this bug is fixed: - You can input data, it displays the edit mask, and it displays the same texts as the normal (non-grid) pattern field. - But it is still *unable* to properly do date<->string conversion, so neither the display of existent dates nor the input of new dates will yield the results you might expect. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
