Today (Function) In french: DateDuJour Returns or modifies the system date (date of the day defined on the current computer). Remarks: - This function is equivalent to DateSys.
The system date corresponds to the date of the day defined on the server.
Res = Today() // Res = "20011225" Res = DateToString(Today()) // Res = "25/12/2001" Year = Left(Today(), 4) // Year returns the current year (2001 for example)
Syntax <Result>: Character string or Date variable System date in YYYYMMDD format (YYYY corresponds to the year, MM to the month and DD to the day). Remarks - To get the date in a format other than YYYYMMDD, the string must be formatted using DateToString, Right, Left, etc. The YYYYMMDD format was chosen because it allows you to check the order of dates. This would not be possible with a date in YYYYDDMM or DDMMYYYY format, for example.
- On all current systems, the year of the system date can be between 1920 and 2120.
- Caution: To modify the system date, you must have the administrator rights on the current computer.
          In this version, Today can only be used to return the system date (of the current computer or the computer where the browser is running).      In simulation mode, the date of the PC is used. At runtime, the date of the mobile device is used.
