Mark,
Use the optional second argument to the ttoc() function
? ttoc({^2000-02-25 11:55}, 2) && prints 11:55
BTW, the other option for the second argument returns a string that can be used to build indexes (like dtos())
? ttoc({^2000-02-25 11:55}, 1) && prints 20000225115500
Interestingly, the Hackers Guide doesn't mention the optional arguments to this function, while MSDN help does (haven't checked FoxHelp.chm, but I expect it's the same as the MSDN version)
Cheers,
Andrew

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
