I believe you would be looking for the TimeX extension ;)
No, TimeX just starts and stops the time in within the programm. But I can't set or compare the actual date of the day...
Thank you though for your response!
The date & time object seems to get pretty close but how can I get the actual date? I can only set the date myself which won't help me.
Any ideas?
Sorry, I meant the TimeStamp object; there is definitely a whole submenu devoted to finding the difference between times. There are a lot of Time[something] objects and I got confused. ;)
Thanks LB. That's ok about mixing them up.
I downloaded the timestamp object but I don't really know how to work with it. All I can do is add it to the debugger as a condition. Can't find it as an action...
Can anyone explain to me how I can use it?
I'm using MMF 252 beta.
Actions don't return a value, so how would they be useful in this case?
You are looking for expressions ;)
I still don't know how to work with it.
If I wanna include it as a condition, let say "If date is equal to...", I can't even find it / select it.
All I can do with it is to add it to the debugger...
You need to use the expression editor.
When you make a new condition, select 'Compare two general values 'from the Special icon.
Hahaha - it's working!!!
Thank you very much... :D
Never work with expression like that before...
