Using C# Functions in Dynamic Text to Format Dates
When configuring Dynamic text in bioWriter, It is possible to use C# functions.
For example, you could use C# functions to format a date or to convert it to a string.
In the example above, DateTime.Parse(Label(1,0,0)) will take a row label “January 2008” and convert it to 01/01/2008 00:00:00
Then, the date is formatted using the String.Format function.
Here are a couple more examples that might be useful:
To get the month name
String.Format("{0:MMMM}", DateTime.Parse(Label(1,0,0)))
To get last day of month
String.Format("{0:MMMM dd, yyyy}", DateTime_AddDays( DateTime_AddMonths( DateTime.Parse( Label(0,0,0)), 1), -1))
More information on the String.Format functions is available here:
