Hi, I've been asked to display yesterday's date on a screen in IFIX.
I've got [FONT="]Dim yesterday As DateTime = Today.AddDays(-1)[/FONT]
as the logic to find the date, but I can't figure out how to display the result.
My intuition tells me to animate the text and drop that script in like I would on a quickpanel, but IFIX doesn't seem to work that way.
When I highlight the text I want to animate to yesterdays date and choose edit script, I'm stuck on how to use the above formula to actually display text on the operator screen.
Is this simple? Can anyone tell me how to do this?
