To do this open the report from the report designer and click once on the field you want to change. Click the arrow just above the field to get into the properties and make the changes where it says Format String. Save the report and you should be set.</span></p> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;color:black;font-size:10pt;">Changing the date format on emails that are sent through Method</span></span></strong><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;color:black;font-size:10pt;"></span></p> <p><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;color:black;font-size:10pt;">If you take a look at the Date Function action one of its function is Format Date, you can format the date so it doesn&#39;t show time and then use that formatted date in your emails.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:&#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;;color:black;font-size:10pt;">-Michael</span></p>http://forums.method.me/cs/forums/thread/5861.aspxThu, 07 Apr 2011 21:34:59 GMT3393c1ec-311b-4812-96cb-ad8c611bba4f:5861Method_Wayne0http://forums.method.me/cs/forums/thread/5861.aspxhttp://forums.method.me/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=5861<p>I&#39;m posting this on behalf of a user:</p> <p>When they were displaying dates in reports (PDF&#39;s) and email templates, they could not get the date to display without having the hours/minutes. &nbsp;Is there a way to display just the date in reports and emails?</p> <p>thanks!</p>
