I've got a buffer which contains a mix of data, number and character fields. I am getting the displaying the values of the fields, but for some reason date fields return "?" when I try to add them to a string.
I still get ? even if I do
ASSIGN lvString = lvString + STRING( hField:BUFFER-VALUE ).
I've also tried assigning the BUFFER-VALUE to a local DATE variable, and converting that to a string, but that doesn't work either - still ?.
However if I use the STRING-VALUE attribute, it works fine.
How do I get the value out as a date field, rather than just a string?
