Hi
How can I convert Date (YYMMDD) to number of days.
One way is to change it to Julian and get the number of days.
I want to know if there is a direct way of doing it.
Thanks |

Mahua,
Refer the manuals to see whether the DATE intrinsic functions can be used for your requirement. |

Hello,
Maybe i misunderstand the question. . .
Is the requirement to calculate the Julian date?
When a "number of days" is mentioned, it usually refers to the number of days between 2 dates. . . |
