Re: Query400 question

Andreas

Be very careful to confirm that the data base data really is in the format 
DD/MM/YY ... if it came from BPCS, it is probably in the format YYYY/MM/DD & 
has been converted into appearing in the format where you see it on reports & 
inquiries.

We do this a lot ... both the CORRECT way & a variety of QUICK & DIRTY ways.

BPCS 405 CD dates are not in IBM date format but as numbers, so using 
Query/400 conversion tools, the data can be moved into an IBM ISO date 
format, then you add ONE DAY or whatever you need in date math.
