GUICtrlCreateDate Ignores AM/PM and setting random time >_<

[MuffettsMan]

it seems to read from ok but updating the date field seems jacked on two fronts - first the BEFORE isn't sending the right time at all..... the second example doesn't take account of the am/pm is something getting converted?

local $GUI = GuiCreate("",200,75)
local $testDate = GUICtrlCreateDate("2015/01/14 09:00:00 PM",15,20,90,20,9)


$val = GUICtrlRead($testDate)
GUIsetState(@SW_SHOW)


ConsoleWrite("testDate BEFORE (Should be 2015/01/14 09:00:00 PM): " & $val & @CRLF)

sleep(1000)

local $test = GUIctrlSetData($testDate,"2015/01/14 10:00:00 PM")
$val = GUICtrlRead($testDate)

ConsoleWrite("testDate AFTER (should be 2015/01/14 10:00:00 PM): " & $val & @CRLF)
While 1
   switch GUIgetMsg()
      Case -3
        Exit
   EndSwitch
WEnd

attempted HH:mm:ss (military time) to no avail:

local $testDate = GUICtrlCreateDate("2015/01/14 21:00:00",15,20,90,20,9)

testDate BEFORE (Should be 2015/01/14 21:00:00): 8:05:01 PM

 

EDIT: spoke to soon...it seems to take it ok as an update so will just work with that....

local $test = GUIctrlSetData($testDate,"2015/01/14 22:00:00")
$val = GUICtrlRead($testDate)

ConsoleWrite("testDate AFTER (should be 2015/01/14 22:00:00): " & $val & @CRLF) 

Log:

testDate AFTER (should be 2015/01/14 22:00:00): 10:00:00 PM

 

 

hopefully there is a time conversion function else will be a pita that reading yields AM/PM but writing has to be HH:mm:ss

You'll need to make the conversion between AM and PM yourself.

well Melba has a date and time udf that works but seems a bit overkill for such a task

enhancement request... give the ability to read the same format that the field needs to write back to itself kinda seems broken
