It is the format to apply to the expression. You can either define your own format or use one of the named formats that Access has predefined such as:. It is a value that specifies the first day of the week. Format a date and time field. Create or delete a date and time field. Access for Microsoft Access More Need more help?
Expand your skills. Get new features first. Was this information helpful? Yes No. Thank you! Any more feedback? The more you tell us the more we can help. You are correct and I was relying on experience from earlier versions of Access, shame on me.
Personally, I agree it's a bug, and something should be done. You can go ahead and file it and I will throw it over the wall into the mysterious MS world.
Maybe something will be done about it before the version after the next comes outm but I won't hold my breath waiting. In reply to Marshall Barton's post on November 28, Hello Marshall:. Thanks for your reply. I am glad that I am insane yet, because at first I was doubting myself. But I have tried it on different computers and asked others to try to duplicate the issue, and that was successful. The only thing that I could not test was an Access installation under Win XP, maybe it has to do with the newer operating system and the Regional and Language settings though not very likely.
At this point I thought I should risk it because I am quite certain that this is a bug. Thanks for confirming this bug. I will keep you and everyone else posted on this issue through this forum.
Hello All: I have opened up a case with Microsoft and it turns out that Microsoft made a design change without publicizing it. Pretty sad, and it does not make sense to me. But this is the change that is confirmed now. In reply to mckremer's post on February 7, For example, the custom format string for the invariant culture is "dddd, dd MMMM yyyy".
The following table lists the properties of the DateTimeFormatInfo object that control the formatting of the returned string. The "f" standard format specifier represents a combination of the long date "D" and short time "t" patterns, separated by a space.
The result string is affected by the formatting information of a specific DateTimeFormatInfo object. The following table lists the DateTimeFormatInfo object properties that may control the formatting of the returned string.
The custom format specifier returned by the DateTimeFormatInfo. ShortTimePattern properties of some cultures may not make use of all properties. The "F" standard format specifier represents a custom date and time format string that is defined by the current DateTimeFormatInfo. FullDateTimePattern property. The custom format specifier that is returned by the FullDateTimePattern property of some cultures may not make use of all properties. The "g" standard format specifier represents a combination of the short date "d" and short time "t" patterns, separated by a space.
The custom format specifier that is returned by the DateTimeFormatInfo. The "G" standard format specifier represents a combination of the short date "d" and long time "T" patterns, separated by a space. LongTimePattern properties of some cultures may not make use of all properties.
The "O" or "o" standard format specifier represents a custom date and time format string using a pattern that preserves time zone information and emits a result string that complies with ISO For DateTime values, this format specifier is designed to preserve date and time values along with the DateTime.
Kind property in text. The formatted string can be parsed back by using the DateTime. ParseExact method if the styles parameter is set to DateTimeStyles. In this string, the pairs of single quotation marks that delimit individual characters, such as the hyphens, the colons, and the letter "T", indicate that the individual character is a literal that cannot be changed.
The apostrophes do not appear in the output string. The time zone component of DateTimeKind. All DateTimeOffset values are also represented in this format. Utc date and time values uses "Z" which stands for zero offset to represent UTC.
Unspecified date and time values have no time zone information. Because the "O" or "o" standard format specifier conforms to an international standard, the formatting or parsing operation that uses the specifier always uses the invariant culture and the Gregorian calendar.
In the case of DateTime objects, the parsing overload that you call should also include a styles parameter with a value of DateTimeStyles. Note that if you call a parsing method with the custom format string that corresponds to the "O" or "o" format specifier, you won't get the same results as "O" or "o". This is because parsing methods that use a custom format string can't parse the string representation of date and time values that lack a time zone component or use "Z" to indicate UTC.
The following example uses the "o" format specifier to display a series of DateTime values and a DateTimeOffset value on a system in the U. Pacific Time zone. The following example uses the "o" format specifier to create a formatted string, and then restores the original date and time value by calling a date and time Parse method. The "R" or "r" standard format specifier represents a custom date and time format string that is defined by the DateTimeFormatInfo. RFCPattern property. The pattern reflects a defined standard, and the property is read-only.
Therefore, it is always the same, regardless of the culture used or the format provider supplied. When this standard format specifier is used, the formatting or parsing operation always uses the invariant culture.
InvariantInfo property that represents the invariant culture. ToUniversalTime method before you perform the formatting operation. In contrast, DateTimeOffset values perform this conversion automatically; there is no need to call the DateTimeOffset.
