<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>The proposed solution
is close to the signature we currently support for the expression function <i>Extract</i>.
It also is in-line with other functions where we accept an identifier from an
enumeration to avoid having multiple functions that just differ in the kind of
information it returns. But if the consensus in this discussion is to have
functions for each of the date/time properties, then the RFC could be adopted.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
