Custom DateTime format

[Sidney_Vogel]

Hi all,

So I have a question in regards to the following part: ToString("%d\d\ " + "%h\h\ " + "%m\m\ " + "%s\s\ ") uipath, could someone please explain to me what the % is in this context and what the d\d\ is, I know its for date but why is it written like this d\d\ or h\h. thank you in advance for the help and explanation.

Thank you for the info, however this table does not show the usage of %d\d\ or %h\h, and I am trying to understand what the % is or does or what is it used for in this context
