I created at a Word filke containing field and the data is from my
database (via ODBC).
One of the fields is Date. The format in the database is dd-mm-yyyy (I
checked it in VB code), but in the Word file it is yyyy-mm-dd.
The Regional Settings from Windows is set to dd-mm-yyyy.
How to have the fields in Word listed to this format as well? The same
field also add time as 00:00:00 while there is no Time issue at all.
So:
MDB file
15-10-2006
Word file
2006-10-15
00:00:00

Consider a connection table - Word, how to have the date format solved?
This should be not a headache issue. Thank you.
(BTW, the fieldname and column are called ModDate.)

Since upgrading from old laptop (Windows 98) to new laptop (Windows XP), my

We commonly use triggers to log changes to our main tables to
historical log tables.
In the trigger, we create a concatenated string of the old values by
casting them as follows:
CAST(O.MYDATE AS CHAR(30))
When directly updating date fields in the main table, the logged value
gets saved in the format YYYY-MM-DD as expected.

It needs GMT date in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format - in SQL: datetime. If date is the same as today, the function returns "Today". There

How to adjust date to user's time zone? Is converting to timestamp()

(e.g. strtotime() + date() OR DateTime object)? Perhaps,...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
