FreezingFire, over here it works. I think it is a regional thing, just like the decimalseparator... I think X-Tools should use it himself to see if it works. I think he can use the same as me, because Germany is 'our' neighbour...

Hi,
thanks for your answers.
This is what I thought - its a regional thing.
This is not so easy, because I have to make
international apps soon.
It's the same with some scripts I found
on vdsworld some years ago. They used
WAIT .1 (or something similar).
This does not work on german OS.
Maybe S.A.D.E could find a way to make it
working international.
Bye, Fabian |

Here's what it looks like just to illustrate the problem I have with the code:
Maybe it is a regional thing but it should be corrected if Fabian is going to
distribute his scripts.

Try this:
| Code: | %%date = "01-01-2000"
runh "CMD /C date /T >c:\date.txt",wait
list create,9
list loadfile,9,c:\date.txt
%%datesep = @substr(@text(9),@diff(@len(@text(9)),7),@diff(@len(@text(9)),7))
list close,9
%%date = @substr(%%date,1,@pred(@pos(-,%%date)))%%datesep@substr(%%date,@succ(@pos(-,%%date)),999)
%%date = @substr(%%date,1,@pred(@pos(-,%%date)))%%datesep@substr(%%date,@succ(@pos(-,%%date)),999)
info @datetime(dddd,%%date) |

You can also use @datetime(/) to get the regional date seperator and @datetime(:) to get the regional time seperator.
| Code: |
%D = @datetime(/)
%T = @datetime(:)
info The regional date seperator as set in the control panel is: %D@cr()The regional time seperator as set in the control panel is: %T
exit
|
You can see using those options you could write a subroutine to take out the seperators without using the command prompt that Skit had in his example.
Regards,
- Mark

hi all,
i too have a problem with the hyphen, but that aside, did anybody test the following code on today's date?
| Code: | rem dd-mm-yyyy
%%date = "01-01-2000"
info @datetime(dddd,%%date)
|
if i use | Code: | | %%date = "13-04-2003" |
without the hyphen, then it returns MONDAY when it should return SUNDAY
perhaps a clue to this lies in an earlier post http://forum.vdsworld.com/viewtopic.php?t=919&highlight=datetime where a whole number is a day but not necessarily the date as expressed by the code above
the question then is whole numbers count the days from what starting point??!?!??
Serge
