DateTimeSerial

,

ufnDateTimeSerial returns the smalldatetime for year, month, day, hour, minute

ufnDateSerial returns the smalldatetime for year, month, day

ufnTimeSerial returns the smalldatetime for hour, minute (based on 1st january 1900)

ufnDateTimeSerial (year, month, day, hour, minute) is equivalent to ufnDateSerial (year, month, day) + ufnTimeSerial (hour, minute)

ufnStrCat and ufnStrRAlign are support utilities
