Description 
The format of the result depends on the date format that was in use when the database file was created. In the United States, dates are generally in the format MM/DD/YYYY. You can change the date format in your operating system.
You can change how the date is displayed by assigning a different date format to the field in Layout mode. Changing the formatting in this way only affects the way the data is displayed, not how it is stored.
Important  To avoid errors when using dates, always use four-digit years. For more information about how FileMaker Pro handles two-digit dates, see Conversion of dates with two-digit years.
Note  If you type a month greater than 12 or a day greater than the number of days in a month, FileMaker Pro adds the extra days or months to the result. The date function also allows zero and negative numbers as parameters. Decimal numbers are truncated to integers.
Examples 
Date(10;10;2014) returns 10/10/2014.
Date(13;1;2014) returns 1/1/2015 (one month after December 1, 2014).
Date(6;0;2014) returns 5/31/2014 (one day before June 1, 2014).
Date(6;-2;2014) returns 5/29/2014 (three days before June 1, 2014).
