Using the date keyword, you can convert a date selected in a Date field into a formatted text to use elsewhere in a form.
Use the line below to access and format a date field:
date ("%x", answers.date_field)
...where %x is how you want the date to be formatted, and date_field is the slug of the Date field in your form.
Date Formats
Examples:
date ("%m%d%y", answers.date_of_birth)
=> If 03/07/2019 is selected in a date field, this would output "030719"
date ("%m%d%Y", answers.date_of_birth)
=> Same as above, but prints the full 4-digit year "03072019"
date("%x", answers.date_of_completion)
=> If 03/07/2019 is selected in a date field, this would output "03/07/19"
