I am working in datetime in django,this is the code in my forms.py

from_time = forms.DateTimeField(label="FromTime",

required=True,

input_formats=["%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"],

widget=DateTimeInput(format="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))

all the values of fields are stored in a dictionary variable say dd,when i try to write the value of the dictionary in a file it is in the form

from_time datetime.datetime(yyyy mm dd hh mm tzinfo=<UTC>)

can anyone suggest me how can i just get the value 2014 6 21 12 0 which is yyyy mm dd hh mm i need to take this value and set it as cron task

Thanks and regards

Rini
