ODell Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I need to convert a date to a double. For example if I have the date 07/20/2009 the date as a double would be 40014. I have searched the forum and the help files but can not find anything that would help. In C I could use the CDbl function to convert it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Frog Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Dates converted to double are just a date calculation using December 30, 1899 as the base. Example: #include <date.au3> Msgbox(0,"Blah",_DateDiff("d","1899/12/30 00:00:00",_NowCalc())) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
