TField.AsDateTime

Access the field's contents as a TDateTime value.

Declaration

Source position: db.pas line 435

public property TField.AsDateTime : TDateTime
  read GetAsDateTime
  write SetAsDateTime;

Description

AsDateTime can be used to read or write the contents of the field as a TDateTime value (for both date and time values). If the native type of the field is not a date or time value, then an attempt will be made to convert the field value from the native format to a TDateTime value when reading the field's content. Likewise, when writing the property, the value will be converted to the native type of the field (if the value allows it). Therefor, when reading or writing a field value for a field whose native data type is not a TDateTime-compatible value (dates or string values), an exception may be raised.
