DateString Property 

  • 發行項

Returns or sets a String value representing the current date according to your system.

Public Property DateString As String

Exceptions

Exception type Error number Condition

InvalidCastException

5

Invalid format used to set value of DateString.

See the "Error number" column if you are upgrading Visual Basic 6.0 applications that use unstructured error handling. (You can compare the error number against the Number Property (Err Object).) However, when possible, you should consider replacing such error control with Structured Exception Handling Overview for Visual Basic.

Remarks

DateString always returns the system date as "MM-dd-yyyy", which uses the abbreviated month name. The accepted formats for setting the date are "M-d-yyyy", "M-d-y", "M/d/yyyy", and "M/d/y". These formats are culture-invariant, which means they do not change even if you change the Regional Options in Control Panel.

To get or set the current system time as a String, use the TimeString Property.

To get the current system date or time in the format of your locale, or in a custom format, supply the Now Property to the Format Function, specifying either Predefined Date/Time Formats (Format Function) or User-Defined Date/Time Formats (Format Function). The following example demonstrates this.

MsgBox("The formatted date is " & Format(Now, "dddd, d MMM yyyy"))

To access the current system date as a Date, use the Today Property.

Security noteSecurity Note

Setting the system date or time requires unmanaged code permission, which might affect its execution in partial-trust situations. For more information, see SecurityPermission and Code Access Permissions.

Example

The following example uses the DateString property to display the current system date.

MsgBox("The current date is " & DateString)

Requirements

Namespace: Microsoft.VisualBasic

Module: DateAndTime

Assembly: Visual Basic Runtime Library (in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll)

Because DateString is a member of a module, rather than of a class, you do not need to create an object on which to access DateString.

Smart Device Developer Notes

You can get, but not set, the system date using the DateString property.
