Add date to list

[Rex_Williams]

Hi Me again!

Sorry to have to use the forum again but I've looked through all the online help and also googled for an answer but can't find one.

I have modified my previous app to now make and store a list of entries in TinyDB but I'd like each entry to have the date (and/or time) that entry was made.

Does anyone have a block example of how this could be achieved?

Regards

Rex

Here, I will explain all the blocks associated to the clock component and a few sample projects which use the clock. 1.DESIGNER PROPERTIRES OF THE CLOCK 1.1Timer Always Fires This is a Boolean property, i.e it accepts only true or false. If you wish the clock to run even if the application is not the active screen, i.e the user is using some other application. Can this be set using blocks? Yes! Default: True …

to generate and format a timestamp, then add it to your entry.

Thank you so much, just what I needed and so simple I now feel stupid LOL!

Good job I'm only doing this for personal use, not for sale otherwise I'd have to share so much of the royalties!
