Use ******formatDateTime******* in conjunction with WriteVal

Quote
"Display date/time according to regional settings
WriteVal( DateTime(), formatDateTime );
"
Also If you don't want to display thousand separator simply
specify Separator = False as below
WriteVal( DateNum(), 1.0, False );
Third thing: all floating point arithmetic is IEEE single precision 32 bit
floating point that has 7 (seven) significant digits.
