Posted on by Community Member

I created a word template to a CRM entity, using the XML mapping.

The template include several dates fields that should be taken from the CRM entity .

these dates should be displayed as "MMMM, D, YYYY" format. I used a date picker control and set the properties to this format , but it keep showing in the CRM format (MM/DD/YYYY) .

Any idea how it can be set ? is it taking the format fro m CRM so it ignore the template setting ?

Thanks

You would think what you did would be enough, but it isn't. Doc Templates are not quite fully built out in my opinion, they do not migrate from one environment to another if on custom entities and such.

I did find this for you though:

msdn.microsoft.com/.../microsoft.office.tools.word.datepickercontentcontrol.datedisplayformat.aspx

Hope this solves this problem for you. If so please verify this answer.
