Hi guys, I am writing a python script that adds a feature to geodatabase feature class. Some fields the user has to enter manually and some are automatic. However the date field output is an incorrect date of 7/5/1905. Does anybody have any idea why this is happening? I have tried everything I could find and nothing worked. I am using a file geodatabase, the date field is of date type and my computer's setting has the correct today's date. Thank you for any help!Here is the code#Calculate Date Field expression = time.strftime("%Y") arcpy.CalculateField_management("Boundary", "Date", expression, "PYTHON")
If I change the code I get a date of 3/29/1969. Here is the code for that:#Calculate Date Field import time import datetime now = datetime.date.today() expression = now.strftime("%m%d%y") arcpy.CalculateField_management("Boundary", "Date", expression, "PYTHON")
