How to display a date in a textbox based on a selection from a dropdown field?

Hi

How do I display a text string in a text box if some condition is met.

Let say my text box is called "Event Date"

I will  insert the condition in my form as follows:

If "Seminar Title" is Equal to "Creating Abundance" (for example)

Display "26th May 2016" into Event Date

Basically I want to populate "Event Date" with the date of the seminar based on the Seminar Title selected.

Do you want to populate a date field? If so, you can do it this way:

1. Add a new DateTime field in the form and set the default date to May 26, 2016.

2. Add a conditional logic to copy this new date field to the target DateTime field when seminar title is equal to your desired value. Here's a sample condition that you should add:

You can test it here: https://form.jotform.com/61404080498960. 

Note that you can simply hide some fields that you don't want to show up in the live form view.

I'm sorry for misunderstanding your question. To populate a textbox with a date, you can just do it this way:

1. Assuming that you already have the textbox in the form, simply add the following condition:

Make sure that you've added the value as a text. It should be in light brown background.  

You can see the output in the test form that I've shared in my first reply.
