[Zope] How do I get a string value of a DateTime object, in a given format

[Chris Beaumont]

Hello,


I'm sorry to ask such a basic DTML question...I just haven't been 
able to get this to work..

I'm hoping to use the Python slicing format to extract the various parts of a
"pCommon" or aCommon" format date (the output from an SQL query) so 
that I can use them individually..

What is the syntax to get the string value of this non-strftime 
format date object, so that I can put it into a string variable for 
slicing?

Thank you,
Chris
