Weird RunRev IDE Problem

[Eric Chatonet]

 From Convert docs:
If the dateAndTime is a container, the converted date and time is  
placed in the container, replacing the previous contents. If the  
dateAndTime is a string, the converted date and time is placed in the  
it variable.
So in your case, returned value is not in 'it' but in 'myFieldValue'
