From double to Date

[Christer Claesson]

Have a Double and want to convert it to a Date format, any suggestions how to do it? And yes, having a date as a double is pretty stupid :-), but converting from double to string or long is not problem anyhow. But in the GUI I'm using one of those fancy almanacs that requires the Date format.

If your Double is number of ticks which should be long type , see the constructor of DateTime structure. Mazy

Where did this Double come from? Another system? If so, then you might have to do some tweaking because not all systems/languages use the same epoch as a starting point, or use the same units of measure. Some count the milliseconds from a specific date and time, others count the number of ticks from a date/time... With that in mind, you can use

DateTime myDateTime(ticks

where ticks is the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since 12:00am on Jan 1, 0001. Yes you read that right, the year 1. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome
