Unfortunately, without a C compiler, I cannot create user-defined functions to use them.... The create function... parms may not be exactly right, as I was reading through the programming manual while writing them. However, the code inside the return() is correct. Cymd2date() assumes the size of an integer is 10. These routines are not optimized (especially cymd2date()). create function date2cymd(indate date) returns integer language sql deterministic begin return( cast( strip(char(int(substr(char(year( indate )),1,2))-19))|| substr(char( indate ,iso),3,2)|| substr(char( indate ,iso),6,2)|| substr(char( indate ,iso),9,2) as integer) ); end create function cymd2date(incymd integer) returns date language sql deterministic begin return( date( strip(char((int(substr(substr(digits( incymd ),4,7),1,1)) +19)))|| substr(substr(digits( incymd ),4,7),2,2)||'-'|| substr(substr(digits( incymd ),4,7),4,2)||'-'|| substr(substr(digits( incymd ),4,7),6,2) ) ); end Can someone with SQL development kit and C compiler compile these functions and verify they compile and work? Are the functions standalone objects that could be saved and emailed? Select date2cymd(curdate()) ... Should return 1,020,802 Select date2cymd(date('1999-12-31')) ... Should return 991,231 Select cymd2date(1020802) ... Should return 08/02/02 (USA) Select cymd2date(0991231) ... Should return 12/31/99 (USA) Thanks, Loyd _______________________________________________ This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/cgi-bin/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@midrange.com Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
