Re: Generating Julian Date

I always figured that julian date was YYDDD but someone offlist recently 
reported to me that there is really some long complicated formula that 
Excel and others use; and it does not really mean that.  However, you 
could use something like
       mychar=%char(%date():*jul0)+
              %char(%subdt(%date():*years))+
              %editc(RelNbr:'X');
       dsply mychar;
