Troubleshooting
Problem
A date in an Impromptu report is displayed in the format DD/MM/YYYY or DD.MM.YYYY (for example: 12/31/2005 or 01.10.2004). When the report is exported to a CSV, the date is in the following format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM (for example: 2004-10-01 12:00). Why is this happening? How is the date format determined, when saving an Impromptu Report as a text or CSV file?
