Betreff: SQL join date field with numeric field
Hi,
I need to join 2 tables, newtable and oldtable, using a date.
In the old table, the date has been stored as a numeric value like this :
20101231
I could join by extracting the year month and day from the new table and
calculating a similar numeric representation, but is there a way of using
the date function on the numeric value in the oldtable to give me a real
date?
Thanks
