Formating a filtering query

[michaelhare]

I have a report that uses a filtering input that filters out data by a given date as shown below.

In the properties section:

Record Source: [Daily Activity]
Filter: [Work Date]>=[Beginning Date: Enter as 01/01/14] And [Work Date]<=[Ending Date: Enter as 01/01/14]
Filter On Load: Yes



This results in a box that asks for the values of the Begin and End Dates. I would like to format those boxes to use a mask to accept date input without having to enter the "/"'s or even better the little calendar that pops up.

AFAIK, cannot format input popups with an input mask. But I didn't know they would show a date picker. I NEVER use popup prompts. Better to use controls on form for inputs and report reference them.
