I have two simple reports.
Each has a DATE system variable in the Page Footer.
Each variable is of Variable type "Date".
One report prints out the date as "January 31, 2014".
The other prints out the date as "01/31/2014".
R>show date
DATE format MM/DD/YYYY
DATE sequence MMDDYY
...
There are no formatting strings in any of the report EEPs.
Why the variance, and where do I control this format?
Bruce,
The date variable that displays as "January 31, 2014" is formatted
as: mmmm d, yyyy
(Most likely copied and pasted from sample applications)
Report Designer | Right-Click on System Variable (Date) | Display Format ...
Notice the Display format ...
Now you can change the display format as you see fit.
Hope that helps!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
