#Time.SecDate

##Syntax Time.SecDate (timeInSecs : int) : string

##Description The Time.SecDate function is used to convert the number of seconds since 00:00:00 GMT Jan 1, 1970 into a date and time string.

If timeInSecs is incorrect or can't be interpreted, then Time.SecDate will return the empty string and Error.Last and Error.LastMsg will be set to the appropriate error.

##Example This program gives the number of seconds since 00:00:00 GMT Jan 1, 1970 and the date in string form.

    var timeInSecs : int := Time.Sec
    var theDateTime: string
    theDateTime := Time.SecDate (timeInSecs)
    put "The number of seconds since 1970 is ", timeInSecs 
    put "Greetings!!  The date and time today is ", theDateTime

##Status Exported qualified.

This means that you can only call the function by calling Time.SecDate, not by calling SecDate.
