Yeah, if you don't specify the return type it comes back as text - usually, ie. C_OBJECT($object) C_DATE($date) C_TEXT($key;$dateStr) $key:="current_date" OB SET($object;$key;Current date(*)) $dateStr:=OB Get($object;$key) $date:=OB Get($object;$key;Is date) On Tue, Aug 16, 2016 at 5:46 PM, L

Lee, Yeah, since there is no 'date' type in javaScript they store a datestamp and then OB GET($obj;"key" Is date) function gets and returns just the date value. I expect it does the same with time. And to Bertrand's point 4D must be doing some sort of automatic conversion with some variable types w
