ECS - Updating the CreateTime?

[JzS]

I want to update the createtime of the entry using ECS. I have the date and time (i want) in a text string as 20001026120000.0Z - but I can't seem to update the create time with this value.
I can do it using seconds since epoch - (modify input_event( CreateTime =>123456789123) but this isn't very practical...anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

I found my own solution - for those interested:

converted the string "20001030125959.0Z" to integers
(i.e. int1 = 2000, int2 = 10 etc)
using the undocumented (integerOf)

then use the impode_time function to make a time variable out of integers
theTime = implode_time (Time.year =>int1, Time.month =>int2,...........)

then of course to update the create time:
input_event alter (CREATION_TIME =>theTime)
Thanks.
