Re: Current Day!

["C.S." <csaxe@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tried the equation backwards to see if DDMMYYYY would 
work.
 
<FONT 
size=2>DOM:=DayOfMonth();MON:=Month();YR:=Year();YR+(MON*10000)+(DOM*1000000)
 
It works for the first day but not for the days at the end of 
the month.
for 4/30/2001 I get 30042000 and not 30042001.

  I am 
  also getting results such as 20001032 (Oct 32nd, 2000) when I should be 
  getting 20001101 (Nov 1st,2000).  Interesting eh?

    Steve:
    This is an excellent concise 
    method.
     
    What version are you using?

      size=2>Hi
      <FONT face=Arial 
      size=2> 
      I use the 
      following in my explorations to denote the date of the last price data in 
      the format yyyymmdd;
      <FONT face=Arial 
      size=2> 
      <FONT face=Arial 
      size=2>DayOfMonth()+(Month()*100)+(Year()*10000)
      <FONT face=Arial 
      size=2> 
      However, this 
      fails if the date is the first of the month such as March 1st 2001, 
      instead of getting 20010301 I get 20010300!
      <FONT face=Arial 
      size=2> 
      Has anyone 
      else experienced this and if so is there a solution?  By the way, 
      using DayOfMonth() 
      on its own produces 01.
