Hi I am hoping someone can help. I have an adobe form which I can not change. The form has individual boxes for each of the 4 values of a year, 2 for month and 2 for day. These are all individual boxes that a user enters for example if a person puts in todays date they would enter 2 in one box 0 in another, 1 in another and 6 in another for the year and also 2 digits for the month and day. This part of the design I am not able to change as the form belongs to another organization.
First I am using adobe Livecycle ES-02. I have used concat to put together a date like YYYY-MM-DD. However when I go pull the value of the concatenated variable it returns zero. How do I format my concatenated variable to read as a date. Ultimately I am trying to put in a condition that says if today's date -the concatenated variable date is less then 5 years then do this. I can not do that because the concatenated variable is not reading as a date.
Below is the code which I use formcalc.
On ready layout
var date
date=Num2Date(Date(), "MM/DD/YYYY")
var Sepdate
Sepdate=(CONCAT(cd,ce,cf,"-",cj,ck,"-",cg,ch)
Here is more code so you can see what I am trying to attempt ultimately. I have added the message box because I wanted to see the value of Sepdate. As I said it comes up as 0.
On Exit
date=Date2Num(date, "MM/DD/YYYY") - Date2Num(date, "YYYY-MM-DD")
var DateDiff=Num2Date(date,"YYYY-DD-MM")-Num2Date(Sepdate,"YYYY-DD-MM")
xfa.host.messageBox(Sepdate)
Any help would be appreciated
