DATE Problems - Change Date Format To European, Get Current Date, Subtract 2 Dates?
Need someone to point me in the right direction/start me off with this please as I am quite clueless on it at present...
I need something that can successfully subtract two dates...
eg. calculate the difference between the current date
02/04/04 (2nd April 04) and 29/03/04 (28th March 04)
...
which will then output a result of 5 days
So what I need to know is...
1.
I need to know how to get the current date from the system clock
2.
I must somehow get my date function converted into European date format (as at present it is in USA format ie. 2nd April 04 is 04/02/04 like April 2nd 04 which is not good!)
3.
and then I must actually SUBTRACT the 2 dates (the current date and a date that is given) from each other to give an integer which I can then use (ie. a value like 5 or 15).
But I have little idea how to go about this
Can anyone please start me off?

Date Format Change
I have a form in my web page that everyone enters in a date and clicks submit. On the click of submit button the date is sent to the sql server and runs a stored procedure. My problem is that everyone enters the date in a dd/mm/yy format. The sql server needs the date to be entered in a yyyy/mm/dd for the stored procedure to run.
Is there any code which I can run in order to change the date format around (FROM dd/mm/yy -- TO -- yyyy/mm/dd) on the onclick event of the submit button on my form.
The html code for my form is as follows
<form action="" method="post" name="accounting" id="accounting">
<input name="date" type="text" id="date">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>
I would really appreciate any help anyone can give to me as I am very new to any type of coding and find it difficult doing some of the simple things.
Thanks
Not even sure if asp is needed to do this. All I know is the page is as asp.

The problem is with the date, in the Grid the format is: dd/mm/yyyy but when i export the document to excel using the saveas method it changes to: mm/dd/yyyy but not all the date just the dates with moth < 12

Auto Change In Date Format
Hello everyone. Long time.
I have this slight problem with my project.
When I input a date into a text box it turns into a time format. I then changed the input mask in the Database to a short date which looks like this: 24/09/2004.
Whenever I enter in the date like 24.09.04 I get incorrect value property error.
Is there any code to automatically change a date to a preset format.
Everyone enters dates differently so that would be the problem. If what they enter changes into a fixed format eg 24/09/2004 without getting any errors would be great.
I tried changing the Data Format but I get 'The DataFormat property is not supported for this DataSource'
Could anyone help me please ?

DATE Problem - Formatting US Date MM/DD/YY To European Date Format DD/MM/YY
I have a problem whereby the user must enter a date into a field...
The system changes the date format to US standard which is MM/DD/YY
but I need to change the format to DD/MM/YY (European standard)
I have done this using the Format function, but I still have a slight problem
Format(mydate,"dd/mm/yy")
doesnt account for all dates...
for example...
if I enter 31/03/04 this is fine, it will accept it as that
However, if I enter 02/04/04 (todays date - 2nd April 04), it will change it to 04/02/04
Any ideas how I can counter this from happening?

Date & Time Values In Date And String Format Differ
The program (debug) output below lists the last modification time of two files. File 1 is stored on a NTFS medium, file 2 sits on a FAT medium.
In order to be able to compare these dates, I need to round the odd seconds of the NTFS file up (FAT files have only even second values).
The lines after the file headers show the date & time value before and after the rounding, in date, double precision and string format.
file 1 (NTFS)
= 2005-07-12 08:57:09 = 38545,3730208333 = 2005-07-12 08:57:09
after rounding up
= 2005-07-12 08:57:10 = 38545,3730324074 = 2005-07-12 08:57:10
file 2 (FAT)
= 2005-07-12 08:57:10 = 38545,3730324074 = 2005-07-12 08:57:10
The strange thing is that when comparing these values, they appear to be different (!) both in date and double data format, not in string format.
2005-07-12 08:57:10 > 2005-07-12 08:57:10 (date format)
38545,3730324074 > 38545,3730324074 (double precision format)
2005-07-12 08:57:10 = 2005-07-12 08:57:10 (string format)
Any idea where this difference comes from?
Rounding up was done with DateAdd.
VB version 6, on XP.
Boiled down code has been attached.

Format String To Date Format And ....
Question one,
If a user types 4/5/03 into a textbox, how do I format this to this date style - 04/05/03?
They may type it as I want, or they may type it like the above, so I need to make sure before I do part two, below, that it is in the correct format.
Part two,
How can I compare the month part of the date (05) with a Month name (e.g. September) in a Flexgrid. I know I can use the textmatrix to get the name of the month. Would the best way be to use a select case to compare the months?
