        For example some element should store the current date in format %d.%m.%Y.

         

        So you need to create the checkpoint for the element's property (e.g. Text) and use Code Expression instead of hardcoded value (or you can use the variable as cunderw suggested).

         

        aqConvert.DateTimeToFormatStr(aqDateTime.Today(), "%d.%m.%Y")
