Hi
I am using RDLC in .Net framework for my reports. I have a field StartDate and it can be null in the database.I want to show the date as 02/12/2010 .
My code is,
=Format (Fields!StartDate.Value,"dd/MM/yyyy")
But in the report it shows "dd/MM/yyyy".

When there is no formatting i.e when the code is,
=Fields!StartDate.Value
the date is shown correctly.
Can anyone help me to sort this out?
thnx in advance

if you want date format dd-mm-yyyy, you can use Replace function like that Replace(Fields!date,"/","-") this is work for me :)
