i had a case a few weeks back of a problem where the computer needs to have a date format of dd-mmm-yy which in today’s date is 21-Feb-18. What i need is for the program to act the same as it was with the format 02\/21\/2018.<\/p>\n
After digging data, i came across these gems of a find. It’s so short and so obvious, i hope this code can help somebody out<\/p>\n
Enjoy<\/p>\n
