Date functions
#1
Hello,
I really enjoy working with qb64PE. However, I am missing some functions.
Would it be possible to add some date functions? They are completely missing and I need them often.
such as: day of the week, day of the year
It would also be nice if you could calculate with the day numbers

Hi Pete - I see where March 24 and March 31 appear in the same calendar box, is that because Feb had that leap year 29th day?

You can get day and format options here: https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2103

Get a timestamp here: https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=65

To figure out how many days is between two dates, get timestamps for both and just subtract.  Divide the result by (60 * 60 * 24 for seconds * minutes * hours).

This all looks mighty mighty complicated, folks. Everything is there in VB-Script to do calculations with dates, and it's easy. The question is, can one integrate a VB script into QB64, because that would really be the easiest way.

Not to forget, these functions are from MS itself and have proven themselves many times over; earlier, when VB-Script was also used in websites.

A little simple program - calculates the days beween two dates.

Code: (Select All)

'Differenz zweier Datumsangaben ermitteln

WScript.Echo DateDiff("d", Now, "1.4.2024") & " Tage bis zum 1. April 2024"

No worries. All my dates are dysfunctional. Functional ones won't date me. Sad

To Dimster: Regarding the doubling up of dates, that happens in any month where we run out if room (squares) to keep a date in. What you will notice is you can click each one, independently.
