Specify a Default Date Format

You can specify a default format for dates that are merged in assembled documents. This default format is used if no format has been assigned by the template provider. It controls how dates are merged into the assembled document—not how dates are formatted for display during the interview. (See Change the Way Dates Appear in Answer Fields.)

To specify a default date format

  1. At the HotDocs library, click the Options button. The HotDocs Options dialog box appears.
  2. Click the Document Assembly folder. The window changes to show several assembly options.
  3. Type a date format in the Default date format field. (Use one of the following example formats: June 3, 1990; 3 June 1990; 03 JUN 90; 06/03/90; or 3rd day of June, 1990.)
