Hi,
I want to be able to coerce two strings (e.g. “12:37:32” and “2005-11-14”) to an AS date variable so I can do date calculations. Once the calculations are done I then want to convert back to the original format. My question is about the initial coersion.
Using “2005-11-14” fails to convert but changing the format enables it
set dStr to "11-14-05"
return date dStr
date "Monday, November 14, 2005 12:00:00 AM"
If need be I can convert “2005-11-14” to the format “11-14-05” but how do I include the time in dStr to get the time set at the same time as the date? (simply concatinating the two strings separated by a space didn’t work). Maybe I should convert the time to seconds and simply add it to the result?
