I need to retrieve an Excel Date field from a cell (format is 'custom'
mm/dd/yy). Good old Scott K. has a service program procedure for this
called "hssf_xls2date" which takes as its only parameter an Excel date
expressed as a "jdouble" (days since 01-01-1900) and returns an RPG Date
field. But since I don't know how to define a "jdouble" field, I'm stuck.
Do I need to create a 'wrapper' proc in the service program that accepts
an integer (or a float) and converts it to jdouble and then invokes
"hssf_xls2date" OR can I just pass "hssf_xls2date" an integer (or float)
and trust that it will know what to do with it.
If I have to add a proc to the service program (above), after I add a new
EXPORT list to my QSRVSRC member, I don't need to re-compile ANY of the
old programs that don't care about the new proc, RIGHT?
Thanks.
