Moderators Melba23 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted July 9, 2015 Thomymaster,No - as I do not see this as of general use.. I suggest using StringRight to get the ms digits, StringTrimRight to remove them before conversion, and then concatenate the converted DTG with the stripped ms value. Or given the simplicity of the conversion just use a simple RegEx:$sInput = "07/06/2015 15:02:04.234" $sOutput = StringRegExpReplace($sInput, "^(\d\d)\/(\d\d)\/(.*)$", "$2.$1.$3") ConsoleWrite($sOutput & " - Returned" & @CRLF & "06.07.2015 15:02:04.234 - Required" & @CRLF)M23 Any of my own code posted anywhere on the forum is available for use by others without any restriction of any kind Open spoiler to see my UDFs: Spoiler ArrayMultiColSort ---- Sort arrays on multiple columnsChooseFileFolder ---- Single and multiple selections from specified path treeview listingDate_Time_Convert -- Easily convert date/time formats, including the language usedExtMsgBox --------- A highly customisable replacement for MsgBoxGUIExtender -------- Extend and retract multiple sections within a GUIGUIFrame ---------- Subdivide GUIs into many adjustable framesGUIListViewEx ------- Insert, delete, move, drag, sort, edit and colour ListView itemsGUITreeViewEx ------ Check/clear parent and child checkboxes in a TreeViewMarquee ----------- Scrolling tickertape GUIsNoFocusLines ------- Remove the dotted focus lines from buttons, sliders, radios and checkboxesNotify ------------- Small notifications on the edge of the displayScrollbars ----------Automatically sized scrollbars with a single commandStringSize ---------- Automatically size controls to fit textToast -------------- Small GUIs which pop out of the notification area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gcue Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 not sure what's going on... this isn't working (using autoit v3.3.12) but if i take out the "hh:mm" it works #include <DTC.au3> $date = "2015:11:16 10:14" $month_short = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd hh:mm", "MM") $month_long = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd hh:mm", "MMMM") $year = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd hh:mm", "yyyy") Debug($date, $month_short, $month_long, $year) any ideas?

Moderators Melba23 Posted May 27, 2016 Author Moderators Share Posted May 27, 2016 gcue, If you look at the @error/@extended values being returned and check the function header you will see that you have told the UDF that the hours are in 12-hour format but you have not specified AM/PM. If you change the hour format to 24-hour or specify AM/PM it works: #include <DTC.au3> $date = "2015:11:16 10:14" ; Use 24-hour format $month_short = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd HH:mm", "MM") $month_long = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd HH:mm", "MMMM") $year = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd HH:mm", "yyyy") ConsoleWrite($month_short & " - " & $month_long & " - " & $year & @CRLF) $date = "2015:11:16 10:14 A" ; Specify AM/PM $month_short = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd hh:mm T", "MM") $month_long = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd hh:mm T", "MMMM") $year = _Date_Time_Convert($date, "yyyy:MM:dd hh:mm T", "yyyy") ConsoleWrite($month_short & " - " & $month_long & " - " & $year & @CRLF) At times I wonder why I bother adding all the error messages and writing function headers......

Tankbuster Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 @Melba23Awesome, tried for 45 min to convert a string based on the $LOCALE_SSHORTDATE. Found a different thread with your remark "My Date_Time_Convert UDF (look in my sig below for the link) will convert that string to any date format you require." - bam - 1 minute later done.

DeltaRocked Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) Hi @Melba23 , I was having some issues with automation of Logs wherein the Date Time is either in English or in some Locale based on the configured OS. It would be great if we come to know about the Locale and then the array of Month Abbreviation in the chosen language is used/created. Would this be possible ? I have been trying to find some list or anything that would help me in getting the Abbreviations but have hit the wall. Local $German = '25 Mrz 2018' Local $English = '25 Mar 2018' ConsoleWrite(_Date_Time_Convert($German,'dd MMM yyyy','dd/MM/yyyy') & @CRLF) ;<-- Returns Empty ConsoleWrite(_Date_Time_Convert($English,'dd MMM yyyy','dd/MM/yyyy') & @CRLF) Regards DR.

Moderators Melba23 Posted May 15, 2018 Author Moderators Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) DeltaRocked, This script will get you the short month names for the currently set locale in the OS. This code seems to do it for all locales, but I am not sufficiently C literate to convert it. M23 Edit: Just found this script - looking into it now. Edit 2: Here you go: expandcollapse popup#include <WinAPILocale.au3> #include <Array.au3> Global $aLocales[10] = [0] For $i = 0 To 0xFFFF ; Check if valid LCID $iLocale = _WinAPI_GetLocaleInfo($i, 0x01) If $iLocale Then ; Store LCID $aLocales[0] += 1 ; Resize array as required If UBound($aLocales) <= $aLocales[0] Then ReDim $aLocales[UBound($aLocales) * 2] EndIf $aLocales[$aLocales[0]] = $iLocale EndIf Next ; Remove any unused elements ReDim $aLocales[$aLocales[0] + 1] ; just for display Global $aShortMonths[$aLocales[0]][13] ; Loop though LCIDs For $i = 1 To $aLocales[0] ; Convert to decimal $iLCID = Dec($aLocales[$i]) ; Get language definition $aShortMonths[$i - 1][0] = _WinAPI_GetLocaleInfo($iLCID, 0x5C) ; Get short months For $j = 0 To 11 $aShortMonths[$i - 1][$j + 1] = _WinAPI_GetLocaleInfo($iLCID, $LOCALE_SABBREVMONTHNAME1 + $j) Next Next ; Sort on language _ArraySort($aShortMonths) ; And here we have them! _ArrayDisplay($aShortMonths, "", Default, 8) Now if you know the language set for the log file you can easily find out the short months used. Edit 3: The @OSLang & @KBLayout macros could help you determine the language.

gcue Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 love this UDF. been using it for years. noticing something strange not sure if its expected? the first 2 do not work but the last 2 work #include "DTC.au3" ;~ $string = "4/28/2023 3:19" $string = "4/28/2023 9:51" ;~ $string = "4/28/2023 10:51" ;~ $string = "4/28/2023 14:51" $new_string = _Date_Time_Convert($string, "M/d/yyyy HH:mm", "yyyyMMddHHmm") ConsoleWrite($new_string & @CRLF) the second string outputs 202304289:1 the first string outputs 202304283:9 while the other 2 output what i would expect 202304281051 202304281451 i know it has to do with the hour only having 1 digit. the dataset im working with doesnt include 0 when the hour is just 1 digit thoughts?

Moderators Melba23 Posted April 29, 2023 Author Moderators Share Posted April 29, 2023 gcue, The problem is that the "in" hour is in a most unusual "unpadded 24hr" format, which is not one that the UDF is expecting. The formats currently accepted are: Hour : HH = 20 (2 digit 24 hr) hh = 08 (2 digit padded 12 hr) h = 8 (1/2 digit 12 hr) I will look into the code to see if I can add another format to the UDF to cover your case.

Moderators Melba23 Posted April 29, 2023 Author Moderators Share Posted April 29, 2023 gcue, As a workaround, you can add the padding yourself - this works foe me: #include "DTC.au3" $string = "4/28/2023 3:19" $new_string = _Date_Time_Convert( _PadHour($string), "M/d/yyyy HH:mm", "yyyyMMddHHmm") ConsoleWrite($new_string & @CRLF) $string = "4/28/2023 9:51" $new_string = _Date_Time_Convert( _PadHour($string), "M/d/yyyy HH:mm", "yyyyMMddHHmm") ConsoleWrite($new_string & @CRLF) $string = "4/28/2023 10:51" $new_string = _Date_Time_Convert( _PadHour($string), "M/d/yyyy HH:mm", "yyyyMMddHHmm") ConsoleWrite($new_string & @CRLF) $string = "4/28/2023 14:51" $new_string = _Date_Time_Convert( _PadHour($string), "M/d/yyyy HH:mm", "yyyyMMddHHmm") ConsoleWrite($new_string & @CRLF) Func _PadHour($sString) ; Extract hour value $sHour = StringRegExpReplace($sString, "^.*\s(.{1,2}):.*$","$1") ; If only a single digit If StringLen($sHour ) = 1 Then ; Add padding $sString = StringRegExpReplace($sString, "\s.*:", " 0" & $sHour & ":") EndIf Return $sString EndFunc But I will keep looking at the UDF internal code to see if I can incorporate this format.

Moderators Melba23 Posted May 13, 2023 Author Moderators Share Posted May 13, 2023 gcue, Sorry for the late reply - my PC was in the repair shop. You are still using the HH mask for the input - fairly obviously that will produce the same error as before. The whole point of the UDF rewrite was to allow you to use the H mask - unpadded 24hr values. So change the input mask to read "M/d/yyyy H:mm" and all should be well.
