I am using the following code to add user instructions in gray italics. I want to use this on a date object but i am unable to get the date to display as full (Wednesday, March 21, 2012). Is there a way to add this to the script?

Form1.Subform1.CurrentMeetingDate::initialize - (JavaScript, client)
this.execEvent("exit");

this.format.picture.value = "null{'" + this.assist.toolTip.value + "'}";

Form1.Subform1.CurrentMeetingDate::enter - (JavaScript, client)

this.fontColor = "0,0,0";

this.font.posture = "normal";

Form1.Subform1.CurrentMeetingDate::exit - (JavaScript, client)
if (this.isNull)

{

this.fontColor = "153,153,153";
this.caption.font.fill.color.value = "0,0,0";

this.font.posture = "italic";

}

Form1.Subform1.CurrentMeetingDate::prePrint - (JavaScript, client)

this.format.picture.value = "";

Form1.Subform1.CurrentMeetingDate::postPrint - (JavaScript, client)

this.format.picture.value = "null{'" + this.assist.toolTip.value + "'}";

Hi,

Extend the exit script with an else statement:

if (this.isNull) {

          this.fontColor = "153,153,153";

          this.caption.font.fill.color.value = "0,0,0";

          this.font.posture = "italic";

}

else {

          this.format.picture.value = "date.full{}";

}

You might also want to hve an if/else statement for the prePrint and postPrint events.

Hope that helps,

Niall
