Re: Timestamp in query

If you are talking Query/400, consider using a combination of the DATE and CHAR functions. DATE will return just that, and CHAR has a 2nd parameter that specified the format of the date - things like ISO and USA and a couple others.
I found this by pressing F1 while in the Expression column in result fields. Remember my suggested poster -- "F1 is my friend!" 

Similar things exist in SQL.

In a query, how can I reformat a timestamp like 2005-10-11-16.22.24.639072?
Editing and sub stringing are not allowed.
