Re: Underline first letter
Kalus's idea is OK up to the point that when you take your pointer over the field the cursor will change to an 'insert'. ... Oh, come on, of course I presume that the field will be set up correctly to act as a button (locktext = TRUE etc...) P.S. A propos: Kalus Are you lefthanded? I am and also do...

Re: Underline first letter
Hi CAsba,
looks like we cannot have this in a button LABEL, only for the text of fields.
You need to "fake" something like this with an extra field or another button or whatever.
Or just use a FIELD with a script instead of a button.

Re: Problem with date

Yes, because we used an invalid (non english) date -> 24/3/25 ... convert fld "field" FROM SYSTEM DATE to seconds convert fld "field2" FROM SYSTEM DATE to seconds ... Will work as long as there ARE in fact system dates in the fields. What c...

Re: Problem with date
Ah, yes, my fault!
@CAsba
When using "convert" you need to supply a VALID format.
If you don't specify a format, LC thinks you are using a ENGLISH date (mm/dd/yy)
and 24/3/25 is NOT, so it won't get converted.
I thought you already got a hint about SYSTEMDATE in another thread?

Re: Problem with date
I can reproduce this! No idea if this is a bug or a freature.
In the meantime use a variable and write it back after conversion:

Don't you think that Paul MIGHT have solved his problems after a little more than 3 years?
So I suspect you are either a BOT (chatgpt or whatever) or a potential spammer with a faible for lasagne...
