Re: String frustration

Perhaps a dumb question. Are you breaking on the line where mdatetime is assigned a value, or after it is assigned a value?

Subject: String frustration

First, I know this is not an RPG list.

I apologize for asking what, to me, seems an especially dumb question.

But, I am clearly missing something. I finally had the time to incorporate the
code Scott posted that he uses to format the Date:. My attempt is resulting in
no Date: header. Using debug, I can comfirm that Scott's code works, and very
nicely. I am, however, managing to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, as
the Date" header I try to construct shows as totally bklank in debug.

So, maybe I am defining something incorrectly?

Below is the D spec and the attempted assignment statemant:

D mdatetime s 256a

mdatetime = 'Date: ' + Temp + ' ' + tz;


What I am lost on is I tried a fixed format EVAL as well. The Temp and tz
variables have values. But, the variable I am trying to build does not even
have 'Date: '.

Again, I apologize for asking an RPG question, and likely a very basic one at
that.
