Re: [Gambas-user] Format function changes date value

[Gianluigi <bag...@gm...>]

I think it depends on your version of Gambas, I get the correct result with
the master:

  Dim zTestDate As String
  Dim zTestResult As String
  zTestDate = "5/4/2018"
  zTestResult = Format(CDate(zTestDate), "mm/dd/yy ddd")
  Debug "Test date: " & zTestDate & " Formatted: " & zTestResult
  '' Result: Main.Main.9: Test date: 5/4/2018 Formatted: 05/04/18 ven
