Hi Dominique,
I thought that if there was one who knows a lot of dates it was you.
\\\
CInt((Now.Month + 2) / 3).ToString & "-" & Now.Year
////
Would give your result I thought.

yes but no :-)
I need something like:
dim x as DateTime = Now()
dim s as String = x.ToString("qua rter-yyyy")
I know how to do it "manualy" but I get the formatstring out of a database
so your "manual" solution is not a solution in this case...

Hi Dominique,
I do not see the problem
Dim datum As Date
datum = DirectCast(dr(" mydate"), Date)
dim s as String = CInt((Datum.Mon th + 2) / 3).ToString & "-" & Datum.Year
What do I see wrong?
If it is with databinding I can it also, but I cannot bring a quarter back
to a date in February.

well the problem is this
dim theStringOutOfM yDataBase as String
.... get string out of database...
dim datum as DateTime = Now()
dim showThisOnScree n as String = datum.ToString( theStringOutOfM yDataBase)
theStringOutOfM yDataBase can be for example "dd-MM-yyyy", "MM-yyyy",...
but it should also be able to show the quarter...
so the database contains only a format ("dd-MM-yyyy", "MM-yyyy",...)
the only thing I see if quarter doesn't have a format character is to
introduce one and "pre-format" the formatstring :-)
but this is a unkewl solution...

Hi Dominique,
If the MM is always written in the string as 01, 02, 03, etc you can because
it is a string make your own function, Q-yyyy and that is than all
equivalents of 1-yyyy etc till 4-yyyy
Just a thought,
Cor

dim datum as DateTime = Now()
dim showThisOnScree n as String = datum.ToString( theStringOutOfM yDataBase)

Suppose you have a DataTable which is part of a DataSet that has a
column of type DateTime.
When you call
ds.GetXml()
the date comes out looking something like this:

I use the DateTime format to change the date format, i.e.
string a = "21/02/2004";
Convert.ToDateTime(a).ToString("MMMM dd, yyyy");
These two lines work well in my VS.NET development machine. But it fail in
my production server. I don't know the reason??
My development machine: winXP Pro, VS.NET 2003

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.

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,...
