this used to work in 7.1.2, adding a day to the date. Now using 8.0.1(rc 1) has the syntax changed?
Code: Select all
convert the long date to dateItems
add 2 to item 3 of it
convert it to abbr date
answer it
Thanks,
larry

Klaus,
Thanks for checking! i tried it in a new stack and it worked fine. There must be something in this stack which i've been working for a loooong time that's conflicting with the message.

did you set the itemDelimiter to something else than "," in your handler before doing
?
Kind regards
Bernd
