Change Login Date

[SBarnes]

How do you change the login date in code so that any business objects will process / save at that date?

[Scott.Pearce]

Code: Select all

Manager.Database.SysDateTime = CDate(NewLoginDate.ToShortDateString & " " & Manager.Database.SysDateTime.ToLongTimeString)

[SBarnes]

Sorry I should have mentioned how to do it in c#

[Scott.Pearce]

Code: Select all

Manager.Database.SysDateTime = (DateTime)NewLoginDate.ToShortDateString + " " + Manager.Database.SysDateTime.ToLongTimeString;

Mike insists we avoid mucking around with strings, so here are some further examples:

Code: Select all

Manager.Database.SysDateTime = DateTime.Now;

Code: Select all

Manager.Database.SysDateTime = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);

And don't you forget it!

Thanks Scott but also sorry as I am with Mike on this one your further examples were a lot more intuitive than the strings.

[Scott.Pearce]

Ironically, the first example is from our source code :-/

[SBarnes]

Yes but it was also VB, still it could have been worse it could have been CIL

Not anymore it isn't.
It's now:

Code: Select all

Manager.Database.SysDateTime = NewLoginDate.Date.Add(Manager.Database.SysDateTime.TimeOfDay)
