Only date fields allow a date format mask. If you define a textfield for a database column of date we always get the the full format including the time and seconds. In that case you would use the datafield type so you can specify a mask. However if the field is display only, you would like to not see the calendar icon beside it. I think it is confusing as it implies you can select a date from the calendar. Yes you can define view to solve that issue but it that just seems a long winded way to do something simple. Could we maybe have a feature where we can set a default dateformat mask for an application. |

Regards, Thanks Ibrahim, that certainly helps. Could I still put in an enhancement request - either allow to specify a default date format mask at application level - add option of date format mask to a domain
