IsEqual (OraTimeStampTZ) Method

Applies To

Description

Checks if the OraTimeStampTZ object is equal to an argument.

Usage

isEqual = OraTimeStampTZOb.IsEqual value, format

Arguments

The arguments for the method are:

Arguments	Description
[`in`] `value`	A `Variant` of type `String`, `Date`, or `OraTimeStampTZ` to be compared.
[`in`] [optional] `format`	Specifies the `TIMESTAMP` `WITH` `TIME` `ZONE` format string to be used to interpret `value` when `value` is type `String`. If `format` is not specified, `value` is interpreted using the `Format` property of the current `OraTimeStampTZ` object.

Remarks

Returns a Boolean value: The value is True if the OraTimeStampTZ object is equal to the argument; otherwise, it is False. The IsEqual method only compares the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) date-time values stored in the OraTimeStampTZ object; the time zone information is ignored.

Note:

UTC was formerly known as Greenwich Mean Time.)

If value is of type String, the string format must match the format specified in the format argument. If format is not specified, the string format must match the Format property of the current session OraTimeStampTZ object.

If value is of Date type, the date-time value in Date is interpreted as the date-time value in the time zone of the session.
