Date Function on a Form

46
Hello,

I have a text box on a form that I'd like to reflect the 15th day of the month and year as selected in a combo box. For instance, if the combo box (call it "cmbdate") is 9/1/2008, I'd like the text box to show 9/15/2008.

I've put the following in the text box: =date(15,month([Forms]![Form1]![cmbdate]),year([Forms]![Form1]![cmbdate]))

I am getting an error that my function contains the wrong number of arguments. I'd imagine this is a syntax issue. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Brian

Hello, Brian.

It is a task for DateSerial() function. Date() function does nothing but return current date.

Try :
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. =CDate('15 ' & Format([Forms]![Form1]![cmbdate],'mmmm yyyy'))
