Hi, I have a DataCardValue that returns a date using Parent.Default and it displays in US format mm/dd/yyyy. I want the date to display in dd-mmm-yy. I have tried to wrap a Text function around the Parent.Default but nothing seems to work. Disclaimer… I am new to PowerApps but tried to find the answers before writing here. Any help is appreciated.
regards Graham

In the properties to the field there is a selction called Format.Ā You should be able to “dd/mm/yyyy” in that box and it will change the format.Ā This surmises that it is a date field.

Hi I finally found a way to do this as follows… Text(DateTimeValue(Parent.Default),”[$-en-GB]dd-mmm-yy”) regards Graham

The Format property is in teh dropdown next to the Function box.Ā If this is not a date field then there will be no option.
