Calibration due date

Solved!
Go to solution

Is there a way to read in a string and convert it to a date stamp??  What I want to do is have the Admin update a text file w the calibration date of the test set.  When its 30 days from the cal date the displayed date turns yellow.  I can do that.  When its past due it turns red...no problem.  When I read in the cal date from a text file and type cast it the year is wrong. 

 

Example:

 

text file:  12/15/16

read in as a text file, type cast : gives 12/15/1903.

Unless someone has a better idea on how to have admin update cal date periodically and have LV read it in.

Thanks..
