Overview
The MS1904ToDate function converts Microsoft 1904 type date to a system time.
Syntax/Parameters
Syntax
qword = MS1904ToDate ( int value | string value | float value );
Parameters
value
A date numbered from January 1, 1904 as a string, float or int.
Return Value
Returns a qword as a 64-bit date time or zero on failure. Use GetLastError to retrieve a formatted error code.
On success, an ISO-8601 version of the date will be placed in the last error message which can be retrieved using the GetLastErrorMessage function.
Remarks
Certain applications employ a date counting method known as 1904 where a date value is stored as days from January 1, 1904.
Time values can be represented as fractions of days (except for the value as int).
The string value can be a whole number or a real number. The value is converted as appropriate and then run as an integer or as a float.
The returned value is a standard file-time value dated from 1600.
