Date Fields using numeric field binding

[GARCIAO]

I am using a date field that is bound to a 8,0 numeric field. I am using y-m-d field formating but when my page is initialized and my date is zero the field is filled with zero's as such ("00000000")

How do I suppress the zero's to blanks?

We don’t have a simple solution at the moment. You would have to use a character field and format it with RPG.

However, for the next update of Profound UI, we are making the following improvements:

1. Numeric fields formatted as dates will automatically suppress zeros

2. It will be possible to specify Edit Words for formatting numeric fields, which will provide you with additional control over the output
