In your script you build a string that contains the date in a known
format,
e.g. "3 11 2004". You set the text field in Filemaker to this value.
This was very much my take. Except I'd have a day, a month and a year
field (globals I guess) which I'd populate as appropriate - and then
have an FMP script which simply casts these values to an FMP date and
drops it into the appropriate date field. Gives me more flexibility
within FMP with respect to users setting the field and, by copying the
FMP script, I can target any date field with a simple mod.
It'll slow things down a bit though.
