Not that I can help, but to clarify for other experts, do you mean storage formats (data formats) or do you mean &quot;expression&quot; formats. &nbsp;i.e what people use to express times and dates?<br />

<div>
Is there a difference between storage formats and &quot;expression&quot; formats?<br />
The formats should be be used within my application ( e.g. timestamp ) but <br />
should also displayed for the user ....<br />

Huge difference. &nbsp;A serial date is stored as a binary integer,where each day after a certain starting date is represented by a consevtive number. &nbsp;i.e. 01/01/1900 might be 0 then 01/021900 might be 1 etc. &nbsp;In a BCD you might store the date using 8 bytes that store the ASCII value of the date digits in year month day order, so 12/11/1998 would be stored as &quot;19981211&quot;. &nbsp;In packed BCD the values would be stored using HEX digits like 0x19,0x98,0x12,0x11. &nbsp;There are dozens of other possibilities. &nbsp;These have nothing to do with how the numbers are expressed to the user.<br />

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
