    If you are using jScript you can create a date using

    var d = new Date(year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds);

    so you can create date and manupulate as you like eg

    var d = new Date(2016,00,28,16,45,19,50)
Log.Message(d)
Log.Message(d.getMilliseconds()+d.getSeconds()*1000);

Similarly in C# scripting??

      As a suggestion, rather than using the native aspects of the language, considering using the aqDateTime, aqConvert, etc., objects.  Yes, doing a direct DateToStr won't work but aqDateTime allows for a number of ways of manipulating dates and times to customize your output.

    Hi,

     

    > Similarly in C# scripting??

    C#Script in TestComplete uses the same JScript engine and actually is the same JScript with the syntax adopted for C# compiler. (This is not relevant now because the feature was created for Connected applications that are deprecated now.)

    Long story short: C#, C++ and JScript syntax can be mixed within the same project.
