RE: date difference

[Rick Renkema <rick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Glenn,

Depending on the way in which you want the difference expressed, I would 
suggest perhaps a CL program that accepts the two dates, does a CVTDAT to 
Julian (on both dates), then subtracts one from the other.  The difference 
between the two dates would then be the number of days.

Does anyone have a routine for dates that will give the difference between
two dates. The one we have with the robot product isn't working & we need
the routine yesterday. Private replies would be appreciated. Regards,
Glenn.
