Using dates and times within BarTender (Video - 4:03)
Overview
BarTender can manage date and time information by pulling information directly from the computer or printer’s clock, basing the time and date information on location or time zone, choosing date formats, adding dates and times from an embedded data source or a database, or automatically generating offset dates.
For more information on dates and times, refer to the Data Sources Property Page in the BarTender help system.
