Date conversion

Recommended Posts

Greetings fellow AutoIt users. I have what would seem to be a simple problem. I would like to read in the date a script was started to an .ini file. This is easy enough. I would like to also display this date in a SplashText window. I can do that to, no problem.

The problem I am having is converting the %A_WDAY% from a number to an actual day of the week. This is what I have tried:

IfEqual, A_WDAY, 1, SetEnv, A_WDAY, Sunday

It still displays the day of the week as a number. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

A little reading goes a long way. Post count means nothing.

shouldn't it be:

IfEqual, A_WDAY, 1, SetEnv, S_WDAY, Sunday

IfEqual, A_WDAY, 2, SetEnv, S_WDAY, Monday

then display %S_WDAY%

Ok, I think I have this correct. Would someone take a look at it and let me know if I did anything wrong? Thank you.

Looks fine to me...

Just 1 minor remarks:

- you could save some lines by replacing the 24 hour IF statements with something like:

SetEnv, S_HOUR, %A_HOUR%

IfGreater, S_HOUR, 12, EnvSub,S_HOUR, 12

IfLess, S_HOUR, 10, StringTrimLeft, S_HOUR , S_HOUR, 1
