The following behaivour of date/datetime items in forms 4.5 is a
mystery for me:
I have a LOV based of a table with two date items TSTART and TEND.
Also a form with two items :TSTART and :TEND. The LOV items are mapped
to the form items.
- :TSTART and :TEND are defined as DATE and a format mask 'DD.MM.RR
HH24:MI'
=> TSTART und TEND will be mapped correctly when using the LOV, this
means TSTART und TEND will be copied in :START and :TEND.
But if I'am using :START or :TEND in a procedure, the format mask will
not be applied, e.g. '1.1.94 00:00' in forms is '1.1.0094 00:00' in a
procedure.
- :TSTART and :TEND are defined as DATETIME and a format mask
'DD.MM.RR HH24:MI'
=> TSTART und TEND will not be mapped when using the LOV, this
means TSTART und TEND will not be copied in :START and :TEND.
When writing some dates in :TSTART and :TEND by hand, the format mask
will be applied, e.g. '1.1.94 00:00' in forms is '1.1.1994' in a
procedure.
Thanks for any help !
