How to change the GetTime() format?

03-04-2024, 04:27 AM

Hi

I am using the function ChartBars.Bars.GetTime(ChartBars.Count) to get the full date.

It return a format like: 04/03/2024 6:00:00 (day/month/year)

How could I get a format like: 2024/03/04 6:00:00 (year/month/day) ?

Hello ninjo,

Are you asking how to print the date in a different format? The DateTime object represents a specific time and that would not have a format applied to it, the way it is output for prints would be based on your systems clock settings. If you wanted to make a string that has a different format you can specify the format in the ToString() method.

Custom date and time format strings - .NET

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/custom-date-and-time-format-strings

Learn to use custom date and time format strings to convert DateTime or DateTimeOffset values into text representations, or to parse strings for dates & times.
