I'm populating a text field via a "pre-submit" script that is attached to a "Submit by Email" button

The script looks like

form1.Subform.TextField2.rawValue

Works fine however I get back

More than I need to know...all I want is date and time.

Thanks!

= Date();

Hi,

If you select the object and go to the Object > Field palette. There is a Patterns button, when clicked will alow you to set a display pattern.

It is probably easier if you change the textfield to a datetimefield, that way the default display patterns will include a wide range of date patterns.

Good luck,

Niall

If I changed the field that is being populated by the submit button to a date field (which makes perfect sense) it won't populate. The script shown in the orginal email was goof up when I posted it actually looks like

form1.Subform.TextField2.rawValue

= date();

Also, having trouble getting the addInstance to flow correctly to additional pages. Any help you could provide would be great. I'm very close to getting this completed.

Thanks!
