I have a custom field with the following formula "Finish & Text4" in a column
called Text5. I then modify bar styles to display Text5 on the Gnatt chart.
Question -- the Finish value shows as 1/15/2010 8:00:00 AM. How do I modify
my formula to only show 1/15/10 and not the time. Additonally, how do I
modify the formula to have the Text4 text display in italics?
Thanks very much in advance

Replace the formula of Text5 with this one - Format(Finish,"ddd mm/dd/
yy ") & Text4

Please let us know if this satisfies your requiremnet.
