Hello Everyone,

I am writing an interface that will select data the previous week.

I would like know how to get the current date so I can determine my date range.

Thanks in advance!

Bonnie

PS. If you could reply to my e-mail address that would be great. bwhite2@tufts-nemc.org

WS-SYSTEM-DATE-YMD is the variable you want to use (it's inserted as part of the compile). It is ccyymmdd PIC 9(08) [ccyymmdd], and gets populated with system date when a program is started.
