Subject: Fw: [TMG] DATE FORMAT
Date: Sat, 6 Apr 2002 16:42:21 +1000


On 2 April 2002, I asked whether the option to format dates as d Mmm yyyy (1 Apr 2002) or d/m/yyyy (1/4/2002), [ie, to omit the leading zeros in day and month], was now available in TMG. The only response was from Bonita, but that did not really resolve my problem. As I said in my reply to Bonita (also 2 April 2002), 'I would like a report option that enables me to suppress the leading zeros in day and month (so that dates look "natural", nor computer-generated)'. I would really like to have this option within TMG, so that one does not have to export to a word processor or other program and then do a Find/Replace.

I've heard nothing more since then, but I'm still keen to find out whether there is a solution. Does anybody else have any ideas/suggestions? Does anyone know whether it will be included as an option in TMG 5?
