is there the opposite of datetime.FromOADate?

[GS]

is there a way to get a date string or date in datetime to the OLE
automation date type of double equivalent?

sorry, please ignore. I finally found one via Google

myDateTimeVar.ToOADate()
does the trick for the range of date and datetime that I deal with
Glad that I don`t have deal with any date prior to 1900 (actually the base
date is 12 December 1899 for the OADate)

I believe you mean the base date is 1899-12-30, which is the 30th of
December, not the 12th.

ToOADate sounds very much as the inverse of FromOADate.

you're are right, my bad mistake;

I believe you mean the base date is 1899-12-30, which is the 30th of
December, not the 12th.
