Hi,
I've just had the same problem, I want to enter a year in the format YYYY,
which I can't using the date/time field type. Having read this post I tried
to choose an integer and have it set the length to 4, but it won't let me
change the length of the integer. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Naomi
You can have a date field that will show just YYYY. However,
I doubt that you can do this in a form. For that a field having an
Integer type seems a good choice. Suggestions: Small Integer and
Integer. The length property for integers states what is the largest or
smallest Integer that can be entered into the field. You might be happy
using Small Integer since it has a length of 5. This may be a little
deceiving since the actual range is from -32768 to +32767.
