Can ODK create long date form instead of yy-mm-dd?

Hi,

I would like to know that can I create the long form for the date instead
of yy-mm-dd?
Frankly, I don't know the computer language, meaning is I cannot write Java
script or other writing. Please kindly help me to know.
Thank you!

Sincerely,
Thuta

Thuta,

What ODK tool are you using and where exactly in the tool are you
seeing the short date?

Hi Yaw,

I am using XLS form for the ODK collect. I want to see the long form on the
web version but I don't know how to create it. On the web, it shows like
"2016-09-22" but I want to see like "Sept 22, 2016". Please help me!
Thank you!

Sincerely,
Thuta

Thuta,

You can't change the date format without writing code in Aggregate. If
you export the data to CSV or stream it to
FusionTables/Spreadsheets/JSON, you can probably do these
transformations on those platforms.

One alternative to try is to use the format-date() option in the XForm
so that on your device running ODK Collect saves it that way in
another prompt. See https://opendatakit.org/help/form-design/binding
for how to use that command.
