<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>Creates a string representation of a paradox timestamp as specified
in the parameter <parameter>format</parameter>. The timestamp must be
either retrieved with <function>PX_get_data_double(3)</function> after
calling <function>PX_get_record(3)</function> or by simply using the
double value in the pxval_t struct as returned by
<function>PX_retrieve_record(3)</function>. A timestamp contains both
time and date information. The format string contains chars which stand
for certain values of the date/time. The following table lists all
available characters with a meaning. All other characters are being
copied unmodified to the output string. If a special character shall not
be interpreted it must be preceded with a backslash.</para>
