Quick question
I'm designing a database where numerous dates are input in various fields on my sheet. I see I can set a mask for how the dates can be written, but for some of the entries, only the day and month are necessary (DD/MM), whilst for others the year is also required (DD/MM/YYYY). Do I have to set up my page WITHOUT a mask to be able to achieve this.
Currently, I have one set up with the Date/Time box, at specific locations, reduced in size to fit on my sheet. No matter, which side I reduced size from, the text ended up showing only the year, whereas these boxes are the ones that only require the day and month showing.
