CDate uses UTC and, without the time information in the string, it would store midnight. Format uses local time.
So, anyone in a time zone behind UTC will get the previous day printed. Try this format string: zTestResult = Format(CDate(zTestDate), "mm/dd/yy hh:nn ddd") Does the difference in hours match your timezone offset? -- Lee On 05/19/2018 09:08 AM, Gianluigi wrote: > I think it depends on your version of Gambas, I get the correct result with > the master: > > Dim zTestDate As String > Dim zTestResult As String > zTestDate = "5/4/2018" > zTestResult = Format(CDate(zTestDate), "mm/dd/yy ddd") > Debug "Test date: " & zTestDate & " Formatted: " & zTestResult > '' Result: Main.Main.9: Test date: 5/4/2018 Formatted: 05/04/18 ven > > Regards > Gianluigi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
