Hi, I don't think you can do either of these things with a standard date control. I you are using positioned content (as opposed to flowed) then you could develop your own control. This sample might get you started, https://acrobat.com/#d=BEYBtTQ7tF-VgbeaI2*zbg. There is a fair amount of code and I never used this in a 'real' form so it probably still has some bugs and is almost completely comment free ... but might get you started.
