Hi there!

The question isnīt really MFC-specific, but perhaps one of You has an answear for me:
The function STRFTIME (time.h) formats an internal date/time string into human readable text. Is there any function that does the reverse convertion? (I am writing a multiplatform library for date and time handling with ORACLE ProC++ support and have to build a feature for my users to pass a human entered and human readable character datestring into my class. The only thing is that I don't really want to write a parser for this if there is any possibility to get around it!)

Thanks for any hints!
