Formatting a date string

[Cory_K]

I thought this would be easy enough, but I am having so much trouble doing this.

I have a time stamp constant, which I have adjusted so that it is in the following format:

%m/%d/%y

Since I can't save files with " / " character, I am goint to use " . " instead.

My original plan was using a 'search and split string' using '/' as a divider.

This would give me 3 strings:

%m

/%d

/%y

That is perfect, except I dont want the '/' in front of the %d and %y.

Could someone help me out with this last step?

How about using search and replace string with the empty string constant as the replacement?

Or... You could just use the Format Date/Time String function:

See, whenever I have a question, someone can always solve it in two clicks of their mouse.

Why is it always the simple solutions I overlook? 🙂
