DatePicker SET MIN DATE


DatePicker SET MIN DATE ( objectName ; dateMin )

Parameter	Type	Description
objectName	Text	Name of subform object
dateMin	Date	Lower limit of enterable date

Description

The DatePicker SET MIN DATE command is used to set the minimum enterable date in a DatePicker calendar (the days located before this minimum date appear grayed out in the calendar).

The objectName parameter specifies the instance of the subform to which the command must be applied. In this parameter, you must pass the name of a subform object displayed in the current form.

The minDate date must be expressed in the default entry format corresponding to the system language. If you pass a blank date (!00/00/00!), all the dates preceding the current date will be enterable.

If the minimum enterable date is later than the maximum enterable date (see DatePicker SET MAX DATE), no date will be enterable.

Example

The current form contains two DatePicker calendars located in two subform objects named "DP1" and "DP2".

  //Disabling all dates before January 1, 2009 in the first calendar

 DatePicker SET MIN DATE("DP1";!01/01/2009!)

  //Disabling all dates before March 1st, 2009 in the second calendar

 DatePicker SET MIN DATE("DP2";!03/01/2009!)
