I get "da MAY 12      ", as expected.

Tried again with different dummy fields. Value is still blank.

What about the "12" are you not sure about?

Was not sure how many characters I would need so chose 12. If that does not
affect it then fine.

Did someone "break" the "mmm_yy" edit?

How would I know if mmm_yy edit was broken. Never used before. How can I
determine if broken and how do I fix?
