Subject: Converting Ticks to Long Date while suppressing Days: how to do it?

------

If I want to convert ticks into a string with long (or abbrev long) format I
would use something like IULDateString().  But what if I want to suppress the
day?  Do I need to then load the 'itl1' resource using myIntlHandle =
IUGetIntl() and set (**myIntlHandle).supressDay  to 255 and then call
IULDateString() using myIntlHandle for intlParam?  When I'm done, do I
DisposHandle(myIntlHandle)?  I would imagine not, since GetIntl() simply calls
GetResource(), but am not sure.

Any info much appreciated!

Robert
