EDTMSK in DDS
Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2012 4:54 pm
The DDS for date fields on our system use the EDTMSK and EDTWRD keywords.
EDTMSK(' & & ') EDTWRD(' / / ')
When Genie renders these dates, it creates 3 seperate fields rather than
one. If I use the design tool to change the field to a date field, it only
changes the part of the original field that I have selected and the value
from the calendar widget is only inserted into that part of the field.
Does anyone have a solution?
I have considered trying to implement a script that would fill the individual
fields when a selection is made from the calendar widget. But I don't know
how to implement this.
I would appreciate any help.
