Hello There.
I am programming with visual basic within the Excel realm.
I have a problem with the way my selected textbox recognizes dates generated from the datepicker.
I am from New Zealand and have set me PC regional settings accordingly.
Our date format is 26 October 2006, 26/10/06.
I have formatted the textbox with the following code:
textbox60.Value = DTPicker1.Value
textbox60 = Format(textbox6 0, "dddd d mmmm")
This works fine if the days in the month are 13th and above.
Example: Date selected 26/10/06, the text will display as:
Thursday 26 October
But if the days are below the 13th, example:02/10/06, the date will display as:
Friday 10 February
I can see what is happening, the dates are swapping to the U.S format of 10/02/06, this is extremely annoying!!
Can anyone help with some clean up code?

Hi, just thought I'd jump in since you haven't got any replies yet.
Could you tell me exactly what data type the DTPicker returns in its Value property? It might be that you are transferring it with some sort of default format, and we all know what that means. Perhaps you need to apply Format() when retrieving this value (and perhaps skip an intermediate step). In other words, instead of - textbox60.Value = DTPicker1.Value
-
textbox60 = Format(textbox60, "dddd d mmmm")
maybe you need to say something along these lines - textbox60.Value = Format(DTPicker1.Value, "dddd d mmmm")

Hello there,
In my asp.net page using VB, I have a date text field in mm/dd/yyyy
format. When a date is entered, I'd like to validate it to make sure
the date is greater than or equal to the current date. If not, I'd
like to display the error message to ValidationSummary.
It seems to make sense to me to use CompareValidator but the problem
is put the current date into CompareValidator. So, I created a hidden
text field in my aspx. ...

Hi
I have a dataform that shows a date from a MSDE 2000 in a textbox.
It uses the format: dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm:ss
It would it to use the format dd-mm-yyyy
But I can't find a Format property for the textbox.
So I tried in the VB code the wizard generates
Me.editDateOfBirth.DataBindings.Add(New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text",
Me.objDSBoerneKirken, "tPersoner.DateOfBirth"))
Me.editDateOfBirth.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(120, 604)

Hello,
I have some datefields in a dataset (ds1). I bind some
textbox controls on a windows form to these date fields in
ds1, but I only want to see 01/01/2004 instead of 1/1/2004
8:00:00 AM. In a DateTimePicker control I can set a
custom format("MM/dd/yyyy"). So when I iterate through
ds1 with currency manager (cma) I see the correct date
format in a DateTimePicker control. Is it possible to set
a custom date format like that for...

I am trying to get a UK format date of dd/mm/yyyy.
Why does the following subroutine not return a valid date in a web form?
The date returned is #12:00:00 AM# but the date I entered into the text box
was 24/06/2006.
The other solution I have tried is given by the following two lines that do
not compile because a value of date type cannot be converted to datetime:

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.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

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,...
