Date Data Type

Date variables are stored as IEEE 64-bit (8-byte) long integers that represent dates ranging from 1 January 1A.D. to 31 December 9999 and times from 0:00:00 to 23:59:59.

Depending on location, any recognizable literal date values can be assigned to Date variables. Date literals must be enclosed within number signs (#), for example, #January 1, 1993# or #1 Jan 93#. Also, Date variables display dates according to the short date format recognized by your computer. Times display according to the time format (either 12-hour or 24-hour) recognized by your computer.

The equivalent NGWS runtime data type is System.DateTime.
