User Tip: Improving the Custom Date Formatting Function
From Al P.:
Just downloaded and used your custom DanDate() function, but it
didn't have any way of illustrating an ordinal number. I've added this functionality to the function,
and its below.
%O adds ordinal (th, nd, rd) to a number)
In DanDate() Function Add:
<![CDATA[
intPosItem = Instr(strFormat, "%O")
Do While intPosItem > 0
strFormat = Left(strFormat, intPosItem-1) & Ordinal(DatePart("d",strDate)) & _
Right(strFormat, Len(strFormat) - (intPosItem + 1))
intPosItem = Instr(strFormat, "%O")
Loop
]]>

Also need to add this:
<![CDATA[
Function Ordinal(aNum)
ord = "th"
if aNum = 1 or aNum = 21 then
ord = "st"
elseif aNum = 2 or aNum = 3 or aNum = 22 or aNum = 23 then
ord = "nd"
end if
Ordinal = ord
End Function
]]>

Anyway, use it, don't use it. Its up to you. :-)
