Syntax
LSParseDateTime( date-time-string )
date-time-string
String being converted to date/time object. This string must be in a form that is
readable in the current locale setting. By default the locale is set to English (US).
Usage
When passing a date/time value for the English (US) locale, the date-time string can be
in any of the following forms:
Date-Time Formats for the English (US) Locale
Date-Time Composition
dd mmmm yyyy
hh:mm:ss
hh:mm:ss
mmmm dd, yyyy hh:mm:ss
hh:mm:ss mmm. dd, yyyy
m/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss
Note that if you specify a year in the date, you should specify the full year.
If the date is formatted for a locale other than the English (US) locale, add or subtract
the conversion time, depending on the locale. LSParseDateTime does not accept POP
dates, nor does it have the capacity to convert dates to Greenwich Mean Time.
Years from 0 to 29 are interpreted as 21
th
as 20
century values.
