Hi,
 
I have a date field and I need this field to be eaxtly "MM/DD/YYYY" for calculation to work.
I tried setting "Pattens" option, but not working.
I expect user will input as m/d/yy or m/d/yyyy.
How do I convert this for exatly as mm/dd/yyyy for my calculation and display back to mm/dd/yyyy on user input field.
 
Thanks, Gombear

Have you looked at the other formatting options for the field?

You may also want to use the validation property for the field.
