Meaning

Hi,

Can anyone explain the logic of this parameter?

>=Format(Date(),"\1/mm/yy")

 

[khawar]

It shows the first of current month

 

[Rockape]

hmm....

not quite certain. I know it should look at the first day of the month [ Date() ] and beyond.

I'm not quite clear on the construct!!!

 

[khawar]

date() means Today so its current month

Hi,

thanks.

But why format? and why is there a switch in the form of a \ ? and why is there quotation marks?


regards

 

[khawar]

Format is used to combine 1(first) with the month and year of today
In short you are extracting month and year from todays date and using 1st with that month and year to get the first day of current month
