Displaying just part of the date
If I have a field called Date, and the standard format is 29-May-1999, is there a way to display just the 29-May portion of it?

I still want the field to contain the 1999, but I want to show just 29-May.

You can use something like

$part_date = substr($rec{'Date'},0,6);

The use the variable $part_date to print it out.
