Yes, just convert the different parts to string,
as shown in the recent thread.

How much simpler can it be?

========================

However, it the array is just for storage and retrieval, why not put the
total date value there, instead of reinventing the wheel?

-- 
Evertjan.
The Netherlands.
(Please change the x'es to dots in my emailaddress)

Yes I can store the Date in the array but there is another problem
I compare the value that have this  format Mon Apr 22 20:00:00 UTC+02:00 
2013
with another value that look like this
2013/04/22 21:10

The only way as I see this if I would be able to compare is to
create a new date and store this value 2013/04/22 21:10.

Or is it a better way ?
