I have posted a new version of iDate, my SQL user defined function to
convert dates to date data types from iSeries type dates.



I, also, added a new function called ConvertToIDate. This is probably
not something people will use a lot but I had a need and added it.



ConvertToIDate takes a Date Data Type and converts it to a iSeries type
of date. Specifically, the value is returned as integer field in the
format requested.



Assume your default date format of *CCYMD.



Select ConvertToIDate(Date_Field) From YourFile



You get back 20070524.



Or



Select ConvertToIDate(Date_Field,'*MDY') From YourFile



You get back 052407.



Also, a bug fix with a character date that was blank.
