ASP Is not a language. You can use several different languages to write code for ASP pages. VbScript is by far the most common. Javascript is also used but isn't as common as VbScrpt. The standard VB Format function is not available in VbScript, so you can either write your own, or use the FormatDateTime function as suggested above.
