Hi !


Let me be more clear on my question first...

I have a date  1999/12/12 o.k..When I convert this date into days I you get
a figure. (like 3457899)

Now if  need to display tomorrows date ,  I add 1 to this number and   how
do I display 1999/12/13 is the Question?(the function needs to be done using
RPG/400 only not ILERPG)


Thanks for all  your time.

Keshav

Does it have to be pure RPG or could you do a QCAEXEC to a CL that uses the
CVTDAT command from *JUL to *CYMD and passes the result back to the RPG.   This
is what I used to do before ILE.  The straight RPG/400 involves using arrays,
that have how many days are in each month, which years are leap years and lots
of other convoluted stuff, which is why everyone wanted to give you ILE
solutions.
