How to convert a string into timestamp

[frentzen]

Hi,

is there a way, to convert a string into a timestamp? The string contains dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss

Thanks for any help, Thomas

Yes. Take a look at the "Scan from String" primitive in the String pallette, and read the help for Format Specifiers, specifically %T which is used to format time.

It contains almost your string formatter:

just remove the %3u
