Converting a date time field

[Joker]

Hi,

There is a date time field([INTRODUCTION_DATE]) in the report.The format is like (Dec 5, 2003 12:00:00 AM). I want to convert it to a format like(05122003). How can I do this?
Thanks in advance..

Hi,

Select the item in your report. Go to the Data Format property and select "Date" then within the same dialog set the Pattern property and enter ddMMyyyy as the pattern.

Cheers!

Ha! Thank you! It's probably a good job you haven't noticed how few of them are correct answers, though ;)
