retrieve date from db and use selects to reflect day, month, year seperately
Hi
I have a form which allows a user to select a 'commencement date' using separate day, month and year drop downs. The date is then submitted to db in DDMMYYYY format(as required). I now need to allow user to edit this date if they need to. So, I retrieve the date from db as ie. 30101968. I now need to place the first 2 digits (30) into strDay, second 2 digits into strMonth and last 4 into strYears so that I can reflect these values in the their relevant drop downs. Does anyone know how to 'grab' those specific values? Thanks! Lee

hi leeolive,
you can use the function Mid(string,start[,length]) for your date Code:
dim mydate mydate="30101968" strDay=Mid(mydate,1,2) strMonth=Mid(mydate,3,2) strYear=Mid(mydate,5)
