Hi, provided that your initial string will always be in the same format (same # of numbers) I would use the substr function. substr(string, start, [length]) Ex: $mystring = "20020124020555"; $year = substr($mystring,0,4); $month = substr($mystring,4,2); $day = substr($mystring,6,2);
etc... Hope this helps. Jeff ----- Original Message ----- From: "Philip J. Newman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2002 8:35 AM Subject: [PHP] Changeing Dates. I have had no luck changing: 20020124020555 into 24 01 2002 @ 0205h 55s Can anyone put some light on this, I'm going nuts Philip J.
