I am developing a report in InfoAssist 8.2.01. I have a date field in YYMD format. I want to use it in a Where filter for a report, so I created a filtering condition, setting the prompt as a dynamic parameter, and test it. When I run it the code I get a drop down of dates like: 01/09/2011 01/16/2011 01/26/2013 01/28/2014 01/30/2015 02/01/2012 02/18/2012 02/22/2013 03/11/2014 I was expecting the "normal" sort in the drop down 01/09/2011 01/16/2011 02/01/2012 02/18/2012 01/26/2013 02/22/2013 01/28/2014 03/11/2014 01/30/2015 I am developing a report in InfoAssist 8.2.01.

Can anyone suggest how I can get these dates to display sorted by year in the filter ? Thank you. Like many WF developers, I feel very restricted by the "limits" of developing reports in InfoAssist.

I just tested this and the Autoprompt for the YYMD field shows a drop down of YYMD (e.g. 2011/12/20) not MDYY. Could you please show us what InfoAssist code generated looks like for the WHERE test? My WHERE test looks like this: WHERE WF_RETAIL.WF_RETAIL_TIME_SALES.TIME_DATE_DAY_COMPONENT EQ &TIME_DATE_DAY_COMPONENT.(FIND RETAIL_SAMPLES/WF_RETAIL.WF_RETAIL_TIME_SALES.TIME_DATE_DAY_COMPONENT IN RETAIL_SAMPLES/WF_RETAIL |FORMAT=YYMD,SORT=ASCENDING,REQUIRED=TRUE).Day:.QUOTEDSTRING; Note the FORMAT=YYMD in the WHERE test. I'm wondering what yours generates. WebFOCUS 8206, Unix, Windows | |||

I had to create an expression to solve this problem. As you know there is NO documentation on how to do this so you have to play around and enjoy the fickle fate of FOCUS.
