to format a date its just to do it something like this FormatDateTime(date),1 and ill get a good looking date

but how the hell can i do something similar with a number so i get it as kb, mb or gb?

All files give you information in bytes so you divide by 1024 for KB, 1024x1024 for MB and 1024x1024x1024 for GB and use formatNumber to make it pretty.
