Return DATE TIME without space

[Comelit2022]

Hi,

I would like to return the sate and time in the format of:

DDMMYYHHMMSS 

As you can see I do not want any special characters or whitespace.

Is there a simple way to do this?  The labview date time vi doesn't offer this feature

Thanks

Richard

 Hi,

Do you mean something like this?

@Xonmyth743 shows you that the Format Date/Time String can express a LabVIEW TimeStamp according to the Format String you specify (personally, I find a long series of numbers somewhat maddening -- you can't even (easily) sort them from "Oldest to Newest" unless you specify very carefully).

But what if you want something other than "Now" (the default when the Time Stamp input is unwired)?  What if you want to specify, say, January 6, 2021, 2 pm, EST?  There's another function, Date/Time to Seconds, that will take a series of numbers and Booleans and make a TimeStamp for you (among other things, this lets you test your code by seeing how a "known time" gets transformed to a Time Stamp, then back to your Numeric Format -- are the numbers the same?).
