That would be true if were consistently like that, but it isn't, length for instance has a function and a property. I can't see how it's good programming practice to make something more complicated than it need be.

The first thing I did was write a wrapper function for it!

Hi,

Revolution is an XTalk:
Probably 'convert <value> to short date and long time' is more English like than 'put convert(<value>,"short date","long time") into something' :-)
I assume this has been carefully thought out since decades...

The problem here is that "convert" is a command rather than a function, it would be *much* better to make it a function and return the result.

Best regards from Paris,
