COleDateTime

[Jeff Boeker]

I'm having some trouble with the COleDateTime Format()
returning a string with no length when it is 12:00:00 AM.

Here's a code snippet that reproduces the problem:

COleDateTime time;
CString strTime;

time.m_dt = 37688.999996701386;
strTime = time.Format(VAR_TIMEVALUEONLY);

Stepping into the Format(), I see that VarBstrFromDate
doesn't fail (hr = S_OK), it just doesn't set the bstr to
anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jeff Boeker

Hi Jeff,

I did repro it on my side. I will report it to our dev team. For now, I
think you need to use time.Format() to get the setting when you get the
empty string.

Thanks very much for your feedback.
