Hi guys,

Normally i use foillowing date format in P3 starting with date followed by month and then year

SAy, 23 JAN 08

One of our client has requested (entire team is Korean) to put in format they work with i.e.

Is it possible to show in P3?

Correct! The problem here is your version differs from what others have. Sometimes, a very simple function can cause a little bit problem when you are a beginner!

I mean that when I open P3,Format , then date, I just can choose dates in number format (e.g. 16112007) and I can’t choose the date format like 16Nov2007. Do you know why is that?

Thank you

Hi all

I also click* Format>dates. I just select the date format 080123. But I can’t select the date format 23 JAN 08 in my P3 programme. Do you know why?

Thank you

yes, it is possible.

*click* Format>dates

In the dialog box is a selection of date styles. the one you want, I think, is the bottom one

I believe this is view specific so you will need to change it in each of your views
