All the time time functions want: YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS

But the program I'm getting the info from will only return MM:DD:YYYY HH:MM:SS PM

Is their a function to convert it without 20 million string commands? lol :P

Thanks,

Kenny

Time to learn regular expressions.

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

Thanks guys. The StringRegExp gave me a headache so I did a stringsplit lol

I'll study that example you posted though and hopefully learn something.

It looks kinda sloppy I guess but it works lol

-Kenny

#include <array.au3>

$LogonTime = "10/18/2008 5:32 AM"

$Array = StringSplit($LogonTime, ":/ ")

If $Array[6] = "PM" Then
    $Array[4] = $Array[4] + 12
    $Array[6] = 30
EndIf

If $Array[6] = "AM" AND StringLen($Array[4]) = 1 Then
    $Array[4] = 0 & $Array[4]
    $Array[6] = 30
EndIf

$LogonTime = $Array[3] & "/" & $Array[1] & "/" & $Array[2] & " " & $Array[4] & ":" & $Array[5] & ":" & $Array[6]

MsgBox(4096,"", $LogonTime)

Sometimes i need to convert to different formats, so this function helps me a lot (i just set required format in last parameter):

$sDateTime = "10:19:2008 03:13:55 AM"
$sConverted_DateTime = _DateTimeConvert($sDateTime, 0, "MM:DD:YYYY HH:MM:SS", "YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS")

MsgBox(64, "_DateTimeConvert", $sDateTime & @CRLF & $sConverted_DateTime)

Func _DateTimeConvert($sDateTime, $iConvertAmPm=0, $sDateTimeFormat="DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS", $sRetFormat="YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS")
    Local $sAM_PM = StringStripWS(StringRegExpReplace($sDateTime, "\d+|:|/", ""), 4)
    
    Local $sDay = StringMid($sDateTime, StringInStr($sDateTimeFormat, "DD", 0, 1), 2)
    Local $sMonth = StringMid($sDateTime, StringInStr($sDateTimeFormat, "MM", 0, 1), 2)
    Local $sYear = StringMid($sDateTime, StringInStr($sDateTimeFormat, "YYYY", 0, 1), 4)
    
    Local $sHour = StringMid($sDateTime, StringInStr($sDateTimeFormat, "HH", 0, 1), 2)
    Local $sMinute = StringMid($sDateTime, StringInStr($sDateTimeFormat, "MM", 0, 2), 2)
    Local $sSecond = StringMid($sDateTime, StringInStr($sDateTimeFormat, "SS", 0, 1), 2)
    
    If $iConvertAmPm And StringStripWS($sAM_PM, 8) = "PM" Then
        If $sHour < 12 Then $sHour += 12
        If $sHour = 12 Then $sHour = "00"
    EndIf
    
    $sRetFormat = StringRegExpReplace($sRetFormat, "(?i)(D+)(^/|:|)", $sDay, 1)
    $sRetFormat = StringRegExpReplace($sRetFormat, "(?i)(M+)(^/|:|)", $sMonth, 1)
    $sRetFormat = StringRegExpReplace($sRetFormat, "(?i)(Y+)(^/|:|)", $sYear, 1)
    
    $sRetFormat = StringRegExpReplace($sRetFormat, "(?i)(H+)[^/|:|]", $sHour, 1)
    $sRetFormat = StringRegExpReplace($sRetFormat, "(?i)(M+)[^/|:|]", $sMinute, 1)
    $sRetFormat = StringRegExpReplace($sRetFormat, "(?i)(S+)[^/|:|]", $sSecond, 1)
    
    Return $sRetFormat & $sAM_PM
EndFunc

I changed this one part to drop the AM/PM when the the convert from 12 to 24 is specified

If $iConvertAmPm And StringStripWS($sAM_PM, 8) = "PM" Then
        If $sHour < 12 Then
            $sHour += 12
            $sAM_PM = ""
        EndIf
        If $sHour = 12 Then $sHour = "00"
    EndIf
        If $iConvertAmPm And StringStripWS($sAM_PM, 8) = "AM" Then $sAM_PM = ""

Doesn't seem to handle single digits for the Hour/MM/DD though. I'm experimenting lol

and why not using my very short solution?

#include <misc.au3>; for _Iif(). This is a builtin function in well-engineered languages :-(
_Convert("10:05:1999 06:23:55 AM")
_Convert("10:19:2008 06:23:55 PM")
_Convert("10/23/2007 07:43:35 PM")

Func _Convert($s1)
    $a = StringSplit($s1, "/: ")
    $s2 = $a[3] & "/" & $a[1] & "/" & $a[2] & " " & _Iif($a[7] = "PM", $a[4] + 12, $a[4]) & ":" & $a[5] & ":" & $a[6]
    MsgBox(0, $s1, $s2)
EndFunc   ;==>_Convert
What happens when it's 12 pm? It goes to 24 not 00 :P

hmm that works lol

Here's a modified version of MrCreatoR's, works quite well.

Has some flexibility with input and output

Thanks for the help guys.

Nice. The longer version can handle various input and output formats.

But yours is nice and quick for most conversions :P

I modfied yours very slightly below so it can handle different date format inputs.

I think I'll try and combine these. That would make some of my our parms optional.

So, what problem can we solve next lol

 "I believe that when we leave a place, part of it goes with us and part of us remains... Go anywhere, when it is quiet, and just listen.. After a while, you will hear the echoes of all our conversations, every thought and word we've exchanged.... Long after we are gone our voices will linger in these walls for as long as this place remains."
