Remarks

When a TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone is converted to a string, both the beginning and ending bound will be included in the returning string. The format of the string will be:

    (Beginning Bound, Ending Bound)    

The format specifier affects the string representation of the beginning and ending bounds of the period. Cultural information specified in the formatProvider is ignored.

If the format parameter is null, the string representation of TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone will be equivalent to the "G" format specifier which is

    (yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffZ, yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffZ)

Format Specifier Description
G

The ANSI representation of the period: (yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffZ, yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffZ).

Example: (2008-08-14 10:21:31.002+01:00, 2008-12-15 12:45:00.212+01:00).

l or L

The SQL literal representation of the period: PERIOD'(yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffZ, yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffZ)'.

Example: PERIOD'(2008-04-14 10:21:31.002+01:00, 2008-12-15 12:45:00.212+01:00)'.
