Re: Week of the year routine

Pretty easy if you use sprintf API, and if your locale is set properly. Hint - %W for zero-based; %V for +1. Tie with atoi() and you're all set.

I have an example I can send this evening (US Eastern) if you like

Before I reinvent the "calendar file" wheel, does anyone have an
*RPG* routine that will calculate the week of the year.

A few parameters:

- This machine is on an older OS version (5.3) and does not have the
SQL feature installed.

- Week 1 of the year starts on January 1. So, for example, in 2010,
Dec. 26-31 would be the last week of the year (53?). Saturday, Jan
1, 2001, is week 1. Monday, Jan 2-8, is week 2, etc.


Thank you.
