I want one of my fields to display "July 08, 2005" but I want to input it as
07/08/05. What would the code be for this in the Input Wizard?

Thanks Jen
 
Does it have to be July 08, 2005 or can it be 08 July 2005 ?
If Yes then simply put Long date as the format property of your box. When
you type in 8/7/05 and move away from the field it will change to 08 July 2005
 
Your FORMAT for the control should be mmmm dd,yyyy.

Your input mask should be mm/dd/yy

Note that the format property controls the display of the data into the control
unless the control has the focus. When the control has the focus the display is
set by the input mask.
