Posted on by Ageorgievtbs

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 @Ageorgievtbs you can try the following to extract the month off the Datetime Picker:
Month(DatePicker1.SelectedDate)
If you have any other question you can tag me.

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! 😊

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

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

Could you also post another screenshot with a date seleted and see if it would say Blank also?
