I have a database that requires the user to enter dates as the first of each month.

I want to set up a warning that alerts the user if they have not used the date format (UK date) 1/mm/yyyy.

I cannot see a date function in FM6 to check that this is the case. I have tried a text function to extract the first Left character but this does not seem to be the way to do it.

Sorry if this is obvious but I am stuck!

Thanks as always.

Assuming they are entering a date field (not a text field) the following will evaluate true if they enter the first of the month:

Date ( month ( datefield ) ; 1 ; year ( datefield ) ) = datefield

Thank you John, as always.

Best regards

David
