    Hello everyone,

    I have looked at all the "calendar" related postings and still can't find a way to do this...

    When you have a "Date of Birth" field setup with a pop up calendar, is there anyway to choose a year, other than 2011?

    For example, now, if someone goes to our site and clicks this Date of Birth box, they have to "click" back month-by-month for 50 years... to choose their birthdate... this is very impractical... there must be some way to click to a previous year, say 1950.

    I realize they can also put the date in numerically, but isn't the calendar supposed to make this easier?

    Or, have I missed a posting somewhere that explains how to do this?

    Thanks!

    Lynn

    Hello Lynn,

    I think for birth dates you're going to want to use the date validation without the calendar. It's the option just before the calendar option.

    This will work better and more quickly for your users than having to page through years and months to select a date.

    Happy to help further,
