LangDateFormat Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The LangDateFormat property is a three-character string describing the position of the day, month, and year members of a date.

Syntax

object.LangDateFormat

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read-only

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetLangDateFormat(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

Note

SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Remarks

The LangDateFormat property reports day, month, and year positions using the characters d, m, and y respectively. For example, a Microsoft SQL Server language displaying dates in month/day/year order reports mdy in the LangDateFormat property of the referencing Language object.
