Hi! I'm new for b4a, i'm trying to get date and time in a string but unable.
here is my code

Dim DTStr As String
DateTime.DateFormat="mm-dd"
DTStr = DateTime.Date(DateTime.Now)
DateTime.TimeFormat="hh:mm:ss a"
DTStr = DTStr & " [" & DateTime.Time(DateTime.Now) & "]"

Please correct me

Please correct me
First of all, what does the string you want to achieve look like. Give an example. There are mistakes in your code. For example the date format you have is for minutes and day not month and day. Please use code tags when posting code

There's really only one error. To see date/time formats, hover over .DateFormat and click on 'formats'.
B4X:
    DateTime.DateFormat="MM-dd"

Thank you William, problem is solved.

B4X:
    Dim DTStr As String
    DateTime.DateFormat="yyyy-MM-dd"
    DTStr = DateTime.Date(DateTime.Now)
    DateTime.TimeFormat="hh:mm:ss a"
    DTStr = DTStr & " [" & DateTime.Time(DateTime.Now) & "]"
    Log(DTStr)

Now the result is: 2022-09-27 [03:19:49 PM]
