Turn a paradox timestamp into a human readable form

px_timestamp2string Converts the timestamp into a string &reftitle.description; stringpx_timestamp2string resourcepxdoc floatvalue stringformat Turns a timestamp as it stored in the paradox file into human readable format. Paradox timestamps are the number of miliseconds since 0001-01-02. This function is just for convenience. It can be easily replaced by some math and the calendar functions as demonstrated in the following example. &reftitle.parameters; pxdoc Resource identifier of the paradox database. value Value as stored in paradox database field of type PX_FIELD_TIME, or PX_FIELD_TIMESTAMP. format String format similar to the format used by date. The placeholders support by this function is a subset of those supported by date (Y, y, m, n, d, j, H, h, G, g, i, s, A, a, L). &reftitle.returnvalues; &return.success; &reftitle.examples; Turn a paradox timestamp into a human readable form ]]> &example.outputs; The Julian day count as passed to jdtogregorian has a different base of 1.1.4714 b.c. and must therefore be calculated by adding 1721425 to the day count used in the paradox file. Turning the day count into a timestamp is easily done by multiplying with 86400000.0 to obtain miliseconds. &reftitle.seealso; px_date2string jdtogregorian
