RE: Get month from date zone

Francis,

I said I tried that and got '00'!
I've got round it with this :
D wMs S 2S 0

wMs = %SUBDT ( AFinDt : *MONTHS );
gMs = %EDITC ( wMs : 'X' );

But surely there's a neater way?

David:

Try this:

gMs = %editc(%SUBDT( AFinDt : *MONTHS ):'X');

%SUBDT returns an integer, so you need to convert it to character. Edit Code 'X' will do that (with a leading zero).

Help !

gMs = %SUBDT ( AFinDt : *MONTHS );

But gMs is 2 character field.

I naively tried %EDITC 'X' which obviously gives me '00'

%CHAR gives '40' if the date is April.
