Convert to date from "19/3/1988"

[your_EMS]

I have column date type. If I insert DATE(“19/3/1988”) to Initial Value nothing appear in the column in the form for that column. Please help me why appear nothing.

@your_EMS
Provided you have a date type column, you don’t need to enter an initial value with a DATE(…) expression. You can directly type it in MM/DD/YYYY format without any quotes.

Note carefully what @LeventK said: MM/DD/YYYY. Month first, then day, then year. That ordering is required.

In addition to @Steve, if that March 3rd, 1988 is a fixed date that you shall enter as an initial value, thought not tested, you can try with this:

DATE(
    TEXT("19/3/1988", "MM/DD/YYYY")
)
