# Referencing custom fields date in forms?

 * I am adding dynamic data to my form, but I have a problem with the following.
 * I want to display start and end date from custom fields, and if the user is not
   ok with them, he should add his own dates. I did it in two ways.
 * First – referencing dates inside a text field. That works, but the user can delete
   that text, which is not really what I want. I want the text field to be undeletable.
 * Second – referencing the date inside date chooser field – this is exactly how
   I would like it, but unfortunately date displayed is not referenced correctly,
   it’s displayed as 01/01/2021.
 * Any way to solve this?
