    Format date for Dropdown list box

    Reply Contact

    We created a date type column "Start date" in a SharePoint custom list.  Then, we retrieved the "Start Date" to a InfoPath Dropdown list box (Date Type).  The date was displayed in the dropdown listbox as "2009-04-16 00:00:00".  Is there any way to format the display value as "04/16/2009"?

    Hi Connie,

    You could make it a date type only instead of a date-time type, but that will only get you 2009-04-16. To format the display value, you'll probably have to use some code, that formats it. There might be a function that does this since the datepicker can format it like that.
