HI,

I have a table that capture many dates.. I have set it in my table as Medium format with this as input mask
99\->L<LL\-00;0;*
So it is supposed to be data entry of dd-mmm-yy, right?? well the system for some reason does not allow me to enter it as dd-mmm-yy instead it changes to yy-mmm-dd and then when it displays back on thefoirm it is dd-mmm-yy. cld someone help me on this as it is irritating to have to get the user enter the date as yy-mmm-dd..
thanks in advance..
Usha
