Customize Date Format In Views

[nur_afini]

How do I make sure that all the date in Views is in the same format. I had some problem with this thing. As when I use LotusScript, I have to declare the field as String and not Date. This is because, I do not know the LotusScript syntax for @Now. I used this code when I declare the date as String "Call uidoc.FieldSetText("DtSubComm", Cstr(Now()))". But when I change the field to Date instead of String, I change the formula to be like this, "Call uidoc.FieldSetText("DtSubComm", Now())", but there is an error msg being prompt out.

What I always do if I have to write a date into a Date field is to perform a uidoc.Refresh() afterwards.
But when you work in the UI classes/front-end, the save should handle the data conversion.
FieldSetText takes a string as it's second argument, so yo have to pass it a string, or you get the error you are seeing.

Always try to store dates in Date fields, not as text.

Dim uiws As New NotesUIWorkspace
Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument
Dim doc As NotesDocument

Set uidoc = uiws.CurrentDocument
Set doc = uidoc.Document

Call doc.ReplaceItemValue("datefield", Now)
