RE: Extract date portion of timestamp in table

Thanks for the reply... The select into was failing.
This was a bonehead mistake involving formatting of my DS field (and setting the SQL datfmt) - the kind of mistake you make late on a Friday afternoon.

Thx for the reply.

Hi Greg,

The manual says it returns a date.

Is your select into failing?

I have a table with a timestamp field... In RSS, I can do;

Select date(myTimestampfield) from myfile

This returns 2023-05-03.... Anyone know what data type is being returned? I'm trying to select this into a ISO date field.

TIA
