Please check the attachment. I have a calc which does: Now() + MakeTimeSpan(0; 3; 0; 0) and saves the value to [DateTime] dataitem. Next calc: Replace([DateTime]; "/"; ".") and converts datetime to text. Sometimet Now() returns datetime in different formats as in picture. I want to get always format: 12.06.17 17:35:42. At the moment the format varies from GB standards to Finnish standards. Do you know why this happens and how it's fixed?

I am putting ""dd/MM/yy HH:mm:ss.mmm"" but it is giving me two digits only for the miliseconds. Could you please confirm how many digits blueprism returns in miliseconds ?
