Title: What’s the matter with DATE$?
Post by: Ficko on December 24, 2006, 07:37:55 AM
The â€Ã...“HELPâ€Ã, of Ebasic says:â€Ã, Default format is DD-MM-YYYYâ€Ã,

OPENCONSOLE
PRINT DATE$
DO:UNTIL INKEY$<>""

I am getting:â€Ã,12-24-2006â€Ã,

Is this because I am using a German XP and/or time zone?
What you guys are getting?

It’s quit of important to know due to you can’t use default DATE$ in your prg if you want that your prg run correctly on other part of the earth!

Or it is just a typo in the HELP file?

There is already a typo in it because it should be (dd-MM-yyyy) or do I am missing something there?

Just a typo in the users guide.  it is MM-dd-yyyy.

Just use the optional format string if you want to change it.
