Any field showing the date button must be in date format, i.e. mm/dd/yy, mm/dd/yyyy. The program will insert the slashes, all you need to do is enter the month, day and year. The date format is determined by Windows and will display per that setup.
Clicking on the date button will bring up a calendar from which you can choose a date.
