CreationTime

Read access to an object's creation time. Read/write access to the creation time of the current formula.

Syntax

[Object].CreationTime

or

[this].CreationTime = Date

The syntax of the CreationTime property consists of the following elements:

Element

Description

Object

Optional. The object being accessed. If you omit this element, then the current formula is accessed. In the case of embedded FPScript you have to use the This keyword.

Date

Calendar time value with date and time or numerical value with the number of seconds since "epoch", i.e. since 01.01.1970 00:00:00 (UTC).

Remarks

The creation time is returned as a calendar time value.

Write access to the header information of a data object is only allowed for the formula where the FPScript code is located. You should only use this option in embedded FPScript. For standard formula objects, you should edit the attribute on the General tab of the Properties dialog box instead.

Available In

FlexPro Basic, Professional, Developer Suite

Example

Dim Result, Paths, Obj

Paths = .\.Objects(".*\.dat").Names

For Each Row i in Paths Do

    Set Obj = $Paths[i]$

    If Obj.CreationTime >= '1.1.2004' Then

        Result = Result : Mean(Obj)

    End

End

Calculates the mean values for all data sets that were created after 1/1/2004 and located in the same folder in which this example formula is located.
