Errors in conversion

jemmy

Folks,

After going through 1 week of training material reading and nightly online researches, I looked at the C/AL programming this past weekend and noticed that it had several problems. :shock:
When I assigned a text to a field (type: date), I got errors:
Type conversion is not possible because 1 of the operators contains an invalid type. Date:= Text
Anyone could tell me how to figure it out. (this should be a simple, but I'm so weak on these). :?

Thanks in advance.

Have a look at the EVALUATE function. This function is used to convert datatypes.

Thanks Luc, it works!

EVALUATE is an answer.

My steps earlier was trying to use typecast like DATE (var) and always failed hehe..
