Subject: UDFs for Date conversions

My shop like many I'm told in the IBM i world uses numeric dates and

Dates are stored in 8 zoned or 9 packed numeric fields in YYYYMMDD

Times in a 6 zoned HHMMSS format. I'm thinking about creating a few

so that I can more easily convert them to SQL dates. Then I started

that this is probably a very common problem and there is probably a

out there already. Does anyone know of one?

If not maybe I'll make them and put the code on github or something.

I'm thining of three functions:
1. numeric date and time in, timestamp out 2. numeric date in, date

numeric time in, time out

Thanks!
Mark
