Dates

I already had a text box with this info: =" Between "&[Enter Start Date]&"
And "&[Enter End Date]" and it works perfectly but I would really like to do
some format to those dates. Right now if I type 8/1 or 8/1/5 or 8/1/2005 it
shows the date as I type it.
I would like to format this to always show the date as M/D/YYYY

Thank you all!

Use the Format() function to display most any data type in a particular
format. Check Help if you have questions.

=" Between "&[Enter Start Date]&" And "&[Enter End Date]"

Where in this statement shoul I use Format()?

Can you tell me how exactly I should do it?

Thank you for the quickly reponse in this post...

You format() the part of your expression that you want to format...

=" Between "& Format([Enter Start Date], "m/d/yyyy") & " And " &
Format([Enter End Date],"m/d/yyyy")
