ASP + SQL Server + Time object problem

[abramsjc at my-deja.com]

Hi again, thanks for the responses.
Here's what I came across. I should have specified that I import a module
and within a class in that module is where the problem was being
experienced. I read the docs by that genuis guy Mark, but trying to use
the PyTime objects gave me errors about no __float__ attribute and other
errors when trying different methods.

> To return a string formatted as the long date in control panel
> time.strftime("%#c", time.localtime(int(timeObject)))

See that int() conversion, that fails. What I found out that it was because
the code lied in the module. If I return the time object to the top-level ASP
script, the int conversion works, PyTime objects work, it all works.
But inside that imported module nothing worked. Pretty weird. Anyone
know why?
