Dim x as object
x = TD_converter.TDconvertDateTime("01.05.2023","","date","iso8601")
x = TD_converter.TDconvertDateTime("","13:30:00","time","ticks")
x = TD_converter.TDconvertDateTime("01.05.2023","13:30:00","datetime","ticks")
x= D_converter.TDconvertDecimal("1,000.5",",>.")

Thanks for your contribution, Guenter

One suggestion, since it is a code module, we may have same "convertDateTime" in another module in our project, albeit of different logic.
Can you add prefix like "TD_convertDateTime" so that we can enjoy both ?
