Alan,

I did not know you had added the ConverToidate function in your UDF. I
re-downloaded the utility and updated. Thanks for your contribution. I use
it all the time, and recommend it highly!

Iam looking for an SQL to increment date by one day.
update ABC36f/FILE set PDATE = pdate+1 where the Pdate= 2007/12/19.

PDATE is defined as 9decimal. Can some one advise me how to do work
this out?

You will find my UDF iDate at www.think400.dk/downloads.htm so to do
what you want.

Update ABC35F/FILE Set PDATE = ConvertToiDate(iDate(PDate,'*CCYMD') + 1
Days),'*CCYMD')

Other alternative is to do what Elvis suggested and convert to date data
type manually.
