Syntax

Parameters

None.

Description

The Date object overrides the toString method of the Object object; it does not inherit Object.toString. For Date objects, the toString method returns a string representation of the object.
MetaScript calls the toString method automatically when a date is to be represented as a text value or when a date is referred to in a string concatenation.

Examples
