    <p>When working with dates, it's especially important to take care of the proper data (sub)types. Feeding a string to a function that expects a date (and relying on 'VBScript - and your local settings - will do the right thing') is dangerous.</p> <p>Using replace will never change the order of the date parts.</p> <p>FormatDateTime depends on the local/regional settings and should be avoided as a sure path to disaster.</p> <p>One way to solve this problem + most of all other problems concerning fancy formatting in VBScript is to use a .Net <strong>System.Text.StringBuilder</strong>:</p> <p>Given Lib.vbs:</p> <pre><code>' Lib.vbs - simple VBScript library/module ' use ' ExecuteGlobal goFS.OpenTextFile(&lt;PathTo\Lib.vbs&gt;).ReadAll() ' to 'include' Lib.vbs in you main script Class ToBeAShamedOf Public a Public b End Class ' ToBeAShamedOf Class cFormat Private m_oSB Private Sub Class_Initialize() Set m_oSB = CreateObject("System.Text.StringBuilder") End Sub ' Class_Initialize Public Function formatOne(sFmt, vElm) m_oSB.AppendFormat sFmt, vElm formatOne = m_oSB.ToString() m_oSB.Length = 0 End Function ' formatOne Public Function formatArray(sFmt, aElms) m_oSB.AppendFormat_4 sFmt, (aElms) formatArray = m_oSB.ToString() m_oSB.Length = 0 End Function ' formatArray End Class ' cFormat </code></pre> <p>and main.vbs:</p> <pre><code>' main.vbs - demo use of library/module Lib.vbs ' Globals Dim gsLibDir : gsLibDir = ".\" Dim goFS : Set goFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") ' LibraryInclude ExecuteGlobal goFS.OpenTextFile(goFS.BuildPath(gsLibDir, "Lib.vbs")).ReadAll() WScript.Quit demoDateFormat() WScript.Quit main() Function main() Dim o : Set o = New ToBeAShamedOf o.a = 4711 o.b = "whatever" WScript.Echo o.a, o.b main = 1 ' can't call this a success End Function ' main Function demoDateFormat() Dim sD : sD = "2012-05-16 01:02:03" ' near future; not yyyyy!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
