      Hi Kirk,

         I created a custom list, I added a field of type DateAndTime and choose Date Only. I aded some values and my list view displays the Date only.

      For anyone looking into this to find a good answer – I'm sorry, but as of this post there isn't one.

      However, there IS an answer.  The support staff sent me the solution – which is to create a custom field where you create a formula to present the value from the date field you are working with.  Then, apply the formatting to THAT field through the configurator (and, of course, don't display the original field).

      As you likely are now, I was disappointed by this "walk around the block" to "find the back door".

      I know this is a few years late, but I also had to create a calculated column and just format the date I needed.

      I tried just creating a column = to the Project start date, but still got Date and Time, so I just used the calculation to format the date

      =TEXT([Project Start Date],"mm/dd/yyyy")

      I then needed to set the width to 20px so the column would not get resized & stack the date.

      Hello,

        Can you please provide your SP and QuickApps (Quest Web Parts) version?

      If you take a look to the above post, it works just fine. That post is from 2011 so I tested the latest released version (6.2 for SP2010)  and also it works fine.

      Thanks,

      Hi ,

      Unfortunately for me our Quest version is a 5.4, so I am not sure why we are not up todate.

      Quest has been in this environment longer than me which I've been here two years.

      I will need to follow up with Infrastructure why we are so far behind

      Thanks

      In SharePoint we built a list and carefully ensured each date field was DATE ONLY.  When I display that list through qlistview it presents the DATE AND TIME – which is not what we want.  Why is this?

      Do I actually have to create a new Calculated Value and display that in its place or am I missing something?

      Your current version is out of support period and I strongly recommend you to upgrade.

      The latest released version is 6.2 for SharePoint 2010 and 2013 (separate packages).
