I've been reading a lot of date formatting posts hoping this had already
been discussed (and saved by me) on this list, but have come up empty.
If this has already come up, it would save me from reinventing the wheel.
I am pulling events from a specific iCal calendar to a text document for
my iPod. When done, I have events that have strings of
Wednesday 6/27/07 from 11:00:00 AM to 4:00:00 PM
I would like to have universal times of
Wednesday 6/27/07 from 1100 to 1600
Here is the relevant part of the script:
repeat with ev in eventTargets
set the evProps to the ev's properties
set the evStartDate to (the short date string of (the
evProps's start date))
set the evDay to word 1 of (the date string of (the
evProps's start date))
set the evStartTime to (the time string of (the evProps's
start date))
--> 11:00:00 AM
-- need to change time to universal format
set the evEndTime to (the time string of (the evProps's
end date))
--> 4:00:00 PM
-- need to change time to universal format
-- sp = " ", ret = return
set the evData to evDay & sp & evStartDate & " from " &
evStartTime & " to " & evEndTime & ret
set the gardenEvents to (the gardenEvents & the evData)
end repeat
Thanks for the help.
