Storing string values in date time field

[sraizada]

Greetings !
I am creating a new schedule in javascript and want to set the repeat time of the schedule to "1 00:00:00" to make it repeat every day.
schedule.repeat="1 00:00:00" errors compaining that cannot store string in a DateTime field.
schedule.repeat=new Date() works but puts the current date and time...
how can i make it take the above string ?

Can anyone post other examples of date manipulation/storing if they have.
regards

Try using the toSCDuration() method. You can read more about it in the online help.

Let us know if this worked.
