Thx. I'll definitely bookmark that for going the other way around. But
I'm more interesting in something like:
var myDate1 = new ARobustDateObject("03/05/05");
var myDate2 = new ARobustDateObject("01/01/2005 15:42:32");
var myDate3:String = "06/25/1972";
var isDate3Older = ARobustDateObject.dateCompare(myDate3,myDate2)
var monthDifference = ARobustDateObject.dateDiff("m",myDate2,myDate1)
The Date object expects the parts of the date as individual parameters
which is the part that requires extra work. This is kinda more along the
lines of what I was looking for:
