Extract date parts from DateField Selected-Value

Avatar

Level 4

Hi folks,

I would like to extract the year part of my datefiedl's selected value.

For example, I would like to get 2010 from : 23/12/2010

And check if the extracted year is smaller than the current year.

How can I do it in LiveCycle(JavaScript is preferred)?

Thank you,

Yair

var Input = Num2Date(Date2Num($.formattedValue, "DD.MM.YYYY"),"YYYY")

var CurrentYear = Num2Date(date(), "YYYY")

if (Input ne CurrentYear) then

     xfa.host.messageBox("Wrong Year")

endif

You can do this with FormCalc in the exit:Event of the date field.

var Input = Num2Date(Date2Num($.formattedValue, "DD/MM/YYYY"), "YYYY")

     if (Input ne 2010) then

     xfa.host.messageBox("Wrong Year selected")

endif
