Hi,

I'm extracting several values from my Access database and one of them is storing date/time value. Is there a way to display this date/time value in different formats on my ASP page. Is there an ASP date/time formatting function?

Hey Jon,

There is a VBScript function called FormatDateTime, which you can use to format the date field in your ASP page. Here is how to use it:

Code:
strTime = FormatDateTime("10/21/2004", vbGeneralDate)


There are 5 constants that you can use as a second parameter of the function (vbGeneralDate, vbLongDate, vbShortDate, vbLongTime, vbShortTime).

I hope this helps.
