VBA supports 2 calendars : Gregorian and Hijri
The Calendar
property is used to modify or display the current calendar.
The 2 values for the Calendar are:
Value | Constant | Description |
---|---|---|
0 | vbCalGreg | Gregorian calendar (default) |
1 | vbCalHijri | Hijri calendar |
Sub CalendarExample()
'Cache the current setting.
Dim Cached As Integer
Cached = Calendar
' Dates in Gregorian Calendar
Calendar = vbCalGreg
Dim Sample As Date
'Create sample date of 2016-07-28
Sample = DateSerial(2016, 7, 28)
Debug.Print "Current Calendar : " & Calendar
Debug.Print "SampleDate = " & Format$(Sample, "yyyy-mm-dd")
' Date in Hijri Calendar
Calendar = vbCalHijri
Debug.Print "Current Calendar : " & Calendar
Debug.Print "SampleDate = " & Format$(Sample, "yyyy-mm-dd")
'Reset VBA to cached value.
Cached = Calendar
End Sub
This Sub prints the following ;
Current Calendar : 0
SampleDate = 2016-07-28
Current Calendar : 1
SampleDate = 1437-10-23
