asp_web_howto thread: Change string
Message #1 by "Matthew Lohr" <mlohr@t...> on Fri, 30 Mar 2001 08:51:10 -0500

I have a string that I know has a space in it. For one value that I display
I need to display everything tho the left of the space only. After playing
with this for 2 days I have come up with the following which still doesn't
work
dim dte
dim i
Dim quick
Dim quick2
for i = 1 to len(thefile.datelastmodified)
if char((thefile.datelastmodified),i) <> " " then
dte = dte & char((thefile.datelastmodified),i)
End If
next
Is there a way to tkae just the date and not the time for .datelastmodified.
Looking at microsoft.com i have not found it. Other wise I know if I take
the last 11 characters off of the right side it would also work

why don't you use the split() function on the space...

if you just want the date part, do this
dte = Date(thefile.datelastmodified)
alternative methods for what you were trying to do are:
set a = split(thefile.datelastmodified, " ")
dte = a(0)
and
dte = thefile.datelastmodified
set i = instr(dte , " ")
dte = left(dte, i)

set i = instr(dte, " ")

i = instr(dte, " ")

Ok i must be doing something wrong or I am lost or something. Non of the
examples seem to work for me.
dtmJustDate = CDate(thefile.datelastmodified)
gives me the date and time
dte = Date(thefile.datelastmodified)
gives me
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01c2'
Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment: 'date'
/admin/reports/temp.asp, line 153
alternative methods for what you were trying to do are:
set a = split(thefile.datelastmodified, " ")
dte = a(0)
gives me
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required
/admin/reports/temp.asp, line 153
and
dte = thefile.datelastmodified
set i = instr(dte , " ")
dte = left(dte, i)
gives me
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required: '[number: 0]'

sorry the date function must expect a date object
try
dte = Date(CDate(thefile.datelastmodified))
as for other examples I gave you, remove the word "set"
