Can you explain how this works? "Mydate" isn't a field in my database ... so where did the date information come from? There is no formatting switch in your fieldcode, so where did the formatting come from. I believe, and correct me if I'm wrong, charformat ensures that the field font properties stay consistent with what is intended. DOes it ensure the number format remains as intended as well?
