Date format as MM/YYYY

Roelof

Older NAV versions were able to define customized date formats in CU-1. Currently in newer versions like NAV2018 and 365 BC, after Microsoft has redefined CU's, these formats suppose to be handled in CU-45. By using table field properties 'AutoFormatType' and 'AutoFormatExpr' and related code in CU-45 (function AutoFormatTranslate) as:
Case AutoFormatType of
3: Exit('<Month,2>/<Year4>'))
END

But it's not working the same. As a matter of fact it's not doing anything.
Are there any other ways to get the same result? This should be for displayed fields and fields which can be modified.

TallyHo

As far as I know, the AutoFormat functionality in NAV/BC only works for Decimal fields.
It will not be triggered when you use a Date field. I added your code (3: Exit('<Month,2>/<Year4>'))) to cu1 in a classic NAV 2009 database, and it isn't even working there. How old were these nav versions? Or am I missing something here..
