For a reason I know not, and repeated asks have produced no answer, no variant of a unified date string will produce a properly formatted date according to my local idea of "proper". The workaround is this:
<?lsmb yy ?><?lsmb mm ?><?lsmb dd ?>01 although you may be able to do: <?lsmb yy ?><?lsmb mmdd ?>01 I have never tried that, however, as I don't need the dd portion. Also be aware, that the right hand side does not reset when the left hand side changes. In other words, these are not resetting incrementing numbers--they are incrementing numbers. So, you will not end up with: 10041901 10041902 10042001 as you might expect, but: 10041901 10041902 10042003 Which I always find annoying, and which has lead to me using very long rhs values and no day portion, simply so I do not have to go in and reset the default all the time. It's on my to do list to implement a resetting runningnumber option, but I haven't looked into how yet.
