Hello,
Is there any way to make our input text auto change format into date format?For example:Input text: 190301 ----->> Auto change into date format: 01/03/2019Regards.
Yes, but you would have to be consistent in how you write it. you cant just do a random string like 190215 and expect it to know that means d/m/y...
DateValue(Text(textinput.text, "m/d/yyyy"))
Hi @cds Thank for your reply.Is it works if i use a text box control?
you will have to set it as a global or contextual variable.. OnChange = Set(ThisDate, DateValue(Text(TextInput.Text, "mm/dd/yyyy")))
Hi @cds I try your formula both in variable and direct to the text box, but i dont get the result as i hoped:you see, the result is 1/1/1903 when i entered the text value as 190301.
what i needed is 01/03/2019 as date format result.I'm hoping to get this:Text box value: 190301Date format result: 01/03/2019 (dd/mm/yyyy) or 03/01/2019 (mm/dd/yyyy)Is this achieveable with powerapps?
It is possible but you are going to have to do some serious string manipulation
can you help?
OK so here is your label: VarDay&"/"&VarMonth&"/"&VarYearOn your TextInput.OnChange put this:UpdateContext({VarYear: "20"& Left(TextInput.Text, 2), VarMonth: Mid(TextInput.Text, 3,2), VarDay: Right(TextInput.Text, 2)})This solution wont work for 1900's or 2100's
@cds This is wonderful!I will try it as soon as i arrived at the HQ.Thanks in advance!Ps.I may have follow up questions for i am a noob in powerapps programming language.
For sure! I appreciate the kudos and if it does work, please accept my solution! 😃
@cds Where should i put this:VarDay&"/"&VarMonth&"/"&VarYear?
