I have two fields (1) start date and (2) end date in a PDF form. I would like a message to appear if the user selects a date that is not between specific dates. For instance, if a user does not select a date that is ">01/01/2014 AND <01/01/2015" I have tried the following code but with no success. I'm using 'FormCalc' on the 'Exit' event.
var selectedNum = Date2Num($.rawValue, "YYYY-MM-DD")
if ( selectedNum >01/01/2014AND<01/01/2015) then
xfa.host.messageBox("Please enter a date for 2014.")
xfa.host.setFocus("DateTimeField1")
endif
You can try the following code.
var selectedNum = Date2Num($.rawValue, "YYYY-MM-DD")
if ( (selectedNum<41639)OR (selectedNum>42004)) then
xfa.host.messageBox("Please enter a date for 2014.")
xfa.host.setFocus("DateTimeField1")
endif
Date2Num function according to documentation link.
Returns the number of days since the epoch, given a
date string.
that means that in comparison you should also use numbers.
41639 represents 01/01/2014
42004 represents 01/01/2015

I want to display the user's last sign-in date in Kotlin but it always returns today's day.
val user :FirebaseUser = FirebaseAuth().getInstance().currentUser!!
val timeStamp : Timestamp = Timestamp(user.metadata?.lastSignInTimestamp!!)
val date = Date(timeStamp.time)
Toast.make(this, date.toString() ,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
I want to display the user's last sign-in date in Kotlin
To display the user's last sign-in date in a Kotlin "style", please use the following lines of code:
FirebaseAuth.getInstance().currentUser?.metadata?.apply {
val lastSignInDate = Date(lastSignInTimestamp)
Toast.makeText(this, lastSignInDate.toString() ,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
The result will be a Toast message containing the String representation of the "lastSignInDate" object, which is an object of type Date. Let's suppose the user has signed in last time yesterday, the message might look similar to this:
Wed Mar 31 11:20:10 GMT+03:00 2021
If needed, you can also format the Date in a more readable way, as explained in the answer from the following post:
convert epoch time to date
I want to store a Javascript Date() object in a spreadsheet with correct format according to spreadsheet's locale (SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSpreadsheetLocale()).
Is there a way to get the country specific (date and) time format string from the spreadsheet locale?
E.g. when locale is de_DE, time format string as hh:mm
but when locale is da_DK, time format string as hh.mm
Interesting as well how to get the countries currency format.
BTW when I have date and time in de_DE and than change to da_DK, dates are reformatted (23.01.2020 -> 23/01/2020) but times are not (it stays as 22:59). Is that an error in Spreadsheet?
Dates in JavaScript have the method toLocaleDateString, which return a string formatted according to the specified locale. But this doesn't seem to work in Apps Script.
If you're open to using an Apps Script Web App for this, you could use this toLocaleDateString in your client-side script (that is, in a script tag in your HTML).
If that's not the case, I think your best option would be to create the relationship between formats and locales yourself, because Apps Script doesn't have a built-in method to achieve that. You could, for example, use a switch statement that would check the locale, and then format the date accordingly with Utilities.formatDate, the tool Apps Script uses to format dates. It could be something along the following lines:
var locale = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSpreadsheetLocale();
var formattedDate;
switch (locale) {
case 'de_DE':
formattedDate = Utilities.formatDate(yourDate, yourTimeZone, "hh:mm");
break;
case 'da_DK':
formattedDate = Utilities.formatDate(yourDate, yourTimeZone, "hh.mm");
break;
// ...
}
return formattedDate;
Reference:
toLocateDateString
Apps Script Web Apps
Utilities.formatDate
I hope this is of any help.
Sorry for that, however I found a function that would be worth checking out, it's toLocaleDateString() and toLocaleTimeString (), they deliver the local date and time format.
Please check
Formato fechas JavaScript.
I did the test from Google Apps Script and it throws me the following
function pruebafecha() {
var d = new Date();
var n = d.toLocaleDateString();
var h = d.toLocaleTimeString();
Logger.log(n);
Logger.log(h);
}
This is the answer(Colombia):
[20-01-24 16:47:50:286 EST] 24 de enero de 2020
[20-01-24 16:47:50:287 EST] 16:47:50 EST
A JavaScript Date object includes date, time and timezone. When Google Apps Script pass a Date object to the spreadsheet using setValue() / setValues() the value is displayed according to the cell number formatting using the spreadsheet timezone.
If the cell formatting is set to Automatic by default the date will be displayed accordingly to the spreadsheet locale.
If you want to force the cell to display a date in an specific format use Class Range setNumberFormat / setNumberFormats
If you don't want to use the above methods and don't want to rely on the spreadsheet locale and automatic cell format then instead of passing a Date object pass the value as an string prepending it with an ' (apostrophe, single quote character) to prevent that that automatic data type parsing changes the value and it's format.

Javascript in Google Sheets script: help using setNumberFormat
I don't know very well the configuration of the sheet you mention. However, I share a code that I use to print the date and time of data submission of a form.
var d = new Date();
var hour = d.getHours()-1;
var min = d.getMinutes();
var day = d.getDate();
var month = d.getMonth()+1;
var year = d.getFullYear();
if (month<10) {dia = day+"/"+"0"+month+"/"+year;}
else {dia = day+"/"+month+"/"+year;}
if (min<10){time = hour+":"+"0"+min;}
else {time = hour+":"+min;}
What I do in the code is to take the values of day, month and year, I add 1 to the value of month because it takes values [0:11] => [Jan, Dec].
Then I build the format I want from date and time, you can notice that I have 1 left to the hours, because when I did the tests I noticed that the time of the script was one hour above.
I use google translate, I hope it is understood.
I'm going loopy....
I want a date, in date format, for example
21/06/2017 17:23:04 GDT
I stamp this on a document, but I then want to display it on my xpage as:
21/06/2017 17:23
But I keep getting different results no matter what I do. I get the date from the onClick of a button using
var dt = new Date();
I then pass this into a function:
function AddObjectivesHistoryItem(doc, dt, action, username){
var ArrDocHistory:array = doc.getItemValueArray("History");
if(ArrDocHistory.length < 1){
// This should always return an object as it is created when an objectives document is first
// created but do this check to be safe and create an array if for some reason it doesnt exist
ArrDocHistory = [dt+"|"+action+"|"+username];
}else{
// append new value to the array
ArrDocHistory.push(dt+"|"+action+"|"+username);
}
doc.replaceItemValue("History",ArrDocHistory);
doc.replaceItemValue("LastUpdatedByName",username);
doc.replaceItemValue("LastUpdatedDate",dt);
}
I've tried using toLocaleString() and all others it seems but it wont work.
For example, toLocaleString() displays as 13-Mar-2018 15:02:15 on my xpage. It's close to what I want except it uses hyphens instead of slashes, and also displays the seconds.
I've tried using custom date pattern on my date field properties with no luck and I'm certain I'm missing something super obvious!?
Any pointers on how to firstly get the date like 21/06/2017 17:23:04 GDT and store as a date and secondly to then display it as 21/06/2017 17:23, this can be a string if it needs to be.
Thanks
You can get your date value as String in SSJS with:
var dateTimeFormat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy kk:mm");
var dateTimeString = dateTimeFormat.format(dt)));
If you want to store as text, java.text.SimpleDateFormat is best for converting a date server-side to a specific text format. It can also be used in a converter to manipulate to/from as well.
Given this code:
var ToDateDate = new String(Request.Form("Comm_ToDateTime"));
ToDateDate = ToDateDate.split("/");
var newToDateTime = ToDateDate[2]+"-"+ToDateDate[1]+"-"+ToDateDate[0]+" "+Request.Form("Comm_ToDateTime_TIME")+":00.000";
CurrentCommunication("Comm_ToDateTime") = newToDateTime;
CurrentCommunication.SaveChanges();
How can i save the date?
This way the date (as Days, month and year) got saved but the hours, minutos does not.
The final output for the newToDateTime variable is 2016-19-09 08:50:00.000
if i use this value (2016-19-09 08:50:00.000) in a barehand SQL update, it works
Turns out that i have to build the Date object with the values and then use getVarDate() mehtod to to pass from a Date Javascriopt object to a record’s date field value which at the end it is the same i was doing :S

I am using Linq to entityframework to query some infomration. I am trying to use entityfunction.truncatetime and it doesnt seem to work as expected. here is my sample query
From d In Request
Where d.Requestor= "XXXX" And d.ProcessedFlag = "N"
Select d.RequestID, RequestReason = d.RequestReason.ItemValue, RequestType = d.RequestType.ItemValue, RequestedDate = EntityFunctions.TruncateTime(d.RequestedMoveDate)
The requesteddate doesnt seem to truncate the time part and I am still getting the both Date and time.
Am I missing something here?
In .NET, the DateTime class actually represents both a date and a time. Internally, this is stored as a numeric value represented by the number of 100-nanosecond "ticks" since Midnight, January 1, 1001 AD. This number gets "converted" when it's displayed (either in output or in a debugger). This conversion is done via a format string.
Even if you truncate a DateTime's time portion, it still has a time... it's just 00:00:00, and if you don't want to see that time, you need to adjust your format string to not convert that.
Thus, if you do something like this: DateTime.Now.Date it will display `10/15/2012 00:00:00" if you use the default date conversion string (or whatever is the default format for your culture).
If you want to only display the Date portion, then you must do something like myDate.ToShortDateString() or myDate.ToString("d").
EntityFunctions is a set of tools designed to be used in Linq to Entities queries, because doing DateTime formatting is not normally allowed in a query.
For example, this code does not work:
var q = from x in dc where x.BirthDate == DateTime.Now.AddYears(-15).Date select x;
You have to do it like this:
var q = from x in dc
where x.Birthdate == EntityFunctions.TruncateTime(DateTime.Now.AddYears(-15))
select x;
This will then generate the correct SQL to do date comparisons in SQL code. This is what the EntityFunctions are designed for, not truncating dates in the select portion (although it does work). But, even though the date is truncated, it will still have a Time component, it will just be 00:00:00, and you must use a date format string to present it to your users in the manner you intend.
cant you use ToShortDateString() like below?
List<DateTime> time = new List<DateTime>();
time.Add(DateTime.Now);
var WhatDate = from date in time
select new { Date = date.ToShortDateString() };
In your case try this
From d In Request
Where d.Requestor= "XXXX" And d.ProcessedFlag = "N"
Select new{ RequestID = d.RequestID, RequestReason = d.RequestReason.ItemValue, RequestType = d.RequestType.ItemValue, RequestedDate = d.RequestedMoveDate.ToShortDateString()};
