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: http://www.shockwave-india.com/blog/actionscript/?asfile=getDateFromString.as JesterXL wrote: >http://www.darronschall.com/weblog/archives/000040.cfm > >CF + AS2 = Yum Yum For You! > >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Tarik Ahmed" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[email protected]> >Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2005 6:35 PM >Subject: [flexcoders] Wish List Item... > > > Uhmm...
