DateTime parameter without time part

There is a post that tells how to do this:
>>Use =Today() and set the field format to d
but where do you set the field format of a parameter?

properties and set format?
Another option is using code file.

a date, but the time does NOT have to be entered when using the parameter.
Some people choose to use the string data type instead of date...

procedures then convert the string to datetime datatypes. If you don't do
somthing similar, the parameter fields on the report append hh:mm:ss to the
parameter value supplied.
