Hi community,

I need something fairly simple but so far I'm not able to find solution. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, so please advice.

I have an app with a date and time picker. I want to create a TextField which show the month number for example is you pick October the text filed to show "10"

I can not find the Data Picker source for DateValue. Can you help me please.

Thanks in avdance.

Hi Again,

thanks for the support. I manage to overcome the issue by placing the Text Field inside the Form. Not is is working. Still can not imagine why it is not working when placed outside the form, but at least my app work perfectly.

Thanks again for the time spend with me!

Hi @Ageorgievtbs

Does the DatePick gets Highlighted? Like mine below if you select the Label and click in the Formula bar?

Please select a date in the DatePicker and you should see results. That means the datepicker is empty or no date is selected.

Hi @Ageorgievtbs

Please change from DataCard to DataValue.
Your screenshot shows that DataValue1 is the input field:
Text(DataValue1.SelectedDate, "mm")

If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know. Have a great day! 😊
