Display date format
I need to display my date on a form as:

on this June 1, 2006, we here by .....

note the position of the "," it needs to be the next spot after the year. I can get it displayed as: on this June 1, 2006 , we here by ....
but I need to get the space out of there.

My date is a field from a data base... my code looks like this:

.
T_SDATE /MtrDYY = SCHED_DATE;
.
on this

Thank you in advance for you help!!

Please post the code where the DEFINEd field is used. I assume the ", we hereby..." is text. Is your "form" an HTML report or a PDF report?

If you are using the T_SDATE in the header then you need a spot marker as in the following:

HEADING
" on this <T_SDATE<+0>, we here by "

Martha, Put [ code] and [ /code] indicators around your code but without spaces after the [
