Re: Date Format Date::Calc

Use Today_and_Now() so you can get the hour/minute/second portion.

use strict;
use warnings;

use Date::Calc qw(Today_and_Now);

print sprintf("%4d-%2d-%2d %2d:%2d:%2d.000", Today_and_Now());

I think you've almost got it. I would suggest adjusting the format spec to pad the 2 digit fields with leading zeroes in the case of a single digit. `print sprintf("%4d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d.000", Today_and_Now());` [download] That way you get: `2010-11-19 12:47:07.000 instead of... 2010-11-19 12:47: 7.000` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
