Hi All

Is there a function to change a month number to a month string equivalent such as month 8 must return Aug or August

Cheers
André

Hi, MonthNumberinAlpha(..) should do it. It returns the month name that you defined in the project description ... long time before fuctions like this were available, in the project code we prepared arrays with long and short day and month names in the language the application was made for. Lots of Wx-functions are there for convenience not out of necessity ...

Monat[1] = "Jänner"; Monat[2] = "Februar"; Monat[3] = "März"; Monat[4] = "April"; Monat[5] = "Mai"; Monat[6] = "Juni"
Monat[7] = "Juli"; Monat[8] = "August"; Monat[9] = "September"; Monat[10] = "Oktober"; Monat[11] = "November"; Monat[12] = "Dezember"

Monatkurz[1] = "JAN"; Monatkurz[2] = "FEB"; Monatkurz[3] = "MAR"; Monatkurz[4] = "APR"; Monatkurz[5] = "MAI"; Monatkurz[6] = "JUN"
Monatkurz[7] = "JUL"; Monatkurz[8] = "AUG"; Monatkurz[9] = "SEP"; Monatkurz[10] = "OKT"; Monatkurz[11] = "NOV"; Monatkurz[12] = "DEZ"

Wochentag[1] = "Montag"; Wochentag[2] = "Dienstag"; Wochentag[3] = "Mittwoch"; Wochentag[4] = "Donnerstag"; Wochentag[5] = "Freitag"
Wochentag[6] = "Samstag"; Wochentag[7] = "Sonntag"; Wochentag[8] = "Reserve 1"; Wochentag[9] = "Reserve 2"

Wochentagkurz[1] = "MO"
Wochentagkurz[2] = "DI"; Wochentagkurz[3] = "MI"; Wochentagkurz[4] = "DO"; Wochentagkurz[5] = "FR"
Wochentagkurz[6] = "SA"; Wochentagkurz[7] = "SO"; Wochentagkurz[8] = "R1"; Wochentagkurz[9] = "R2"

Hi André,

Short for Guenters example:
ar_MyDays is array of string
ar_MyDays=["ma","di","wo"."etc"]

or
Constant
Days="ma,di,wo,do,vr.,za,zo"
END

myDay=extractstring(Days,",",3)

So many ways WX can get the job done :spos:

Kind regards,
Piet

Thanks Piet - I did it the long way round. Going to give it a shot.
And yes - many ways with WX.
