[python-win32] Shape file field update problem

[Brad Posthumus]

The CalculateField method uses VBScript, which does not support the FORMAT command. Try doing a search for "VBScript" and "FORMAT" to find an alternative method of formatting the date in a text field.  As mentioned before this is not a Python issue. For future ArcGIS scripting questions, you will be better off posting to the ESRI forums: http://forums.esri.com/forums.asp?c=93.
