Hi,
The input is 2 different dates.
Here is the example for better understanding:
Date 1 = '2007-09-10'
Date 2 = '2006-12-22'
Then my output should be 9 months.
Thanks,
Mallik |

The results of subtracting 2 date using DB2 is a signed 8 digit number (yyyymmdd), you can use that to calculate the number of months (yyyy * 12) + mm. |
