Ah yes, sorry, I see... :)

In both cases you get today's date (now 6th December), but if you 
convert Date(Now) to a string, this is what you get:


CStr(Date(Now)) becomes yesterday's date + zero time -1 hour "12/05/2018 
23:00:00"
Str(Date(Now)) becomes today's date + zero time "06.12.2018 00:00:00"

Strange, isn't it?
