What specific issue are you having?

I am new and making a form I want the date where they add
it as they fill out the form. Not sure how to format to
insure they put mm/dd/yyyy exactly.
 
Do you want the user to enter the date they are completing the form or
another date? If it is the date they are completing the form, you can have
the date added automatically without any user input by selecting the date
option under Form | Options | Saved Fields.

Or if it is a date they are entering
- never trust the user to enter it correctly

Create 3 fields one each for: mm, dd and yyyy and set field validation for numbers
- of course that won't prevent an invalid date
So use one of the many date picker java (or server side validation)
