"&todays_date"

I have a table that I have been using that has "&todays_date" which has been working well and shows the date as 10-MAR-15.

I copied this table over to another table, but similar and when I go to use this new table with "&todays_date" it works also, but shows the date as Mar-10-15.

How do I fixed the format of the date when they are both "&todays_date"

Thanks, Dale

    Tom,

    %dd-%MM-%yy

    This was tucked away in some obscure place of an old mapkey. During revisions recently it got removed.

    Now it has been added back in and the date works correctly for either table.

    config.pro option "todays_date_note_format". We have ours set to: %mm-%dd-%yy

    ... and what does that give you Tom?

    Mar-09-15

    If I want 09-MAR-15, do I use %dd-%MM-%yy?

    Thanks, Dale
