Time/Date format and changing time to GMT

[Shaiboy_UK]

Hi All,

Sorry if this is the wrong newsgroup to post into, on this topic, if so, please
point me in the right direction.....

Currently working on a ASP for a friend, which requires the date and
time on it. It pulls in entries from an Access Database with dates and
times in the format of:
"Fri Oct 17 18:02:46 2003"
However my date and time on the ASP page is displayed as:
"Friday, October 17, 2003 18:02:46"
using the script:
"<%Session.LCID = 1033%>
<%=FormatDateTime(Date(), vbLongDate)%>
<%Session.LCID = 2057%>
<%=time()%>"

Anyone know how to change this script, fully or partly to produce the
date and time on the format that's in the access database i.e. "Fri Oct 17
18:02:46 2003"

Also, as the ASP host I'm using in based in the US (Norfolk I believe),
it is displaying the time not as GMT which the web site would be viewed
in, anyway of changing this?

Thanks for any help.

Date/Times are not stored with any format. In an Access database, date/times
are stored as Doubles, with the whole number portion representing the number
of days since the seed date, and the decimal portion representing the time
of day (.5 = noon). It is up to the client (the application that is pulling
the data from the database) to apply any formatting. With ASP, the regional
settings for the IUSR or IWAM account (depending on where the code is
running) are used.
