Never
thought of trying that. Good idea which must help the Metastock developers
but not us.
I did
try ABS(), ROUND() and ADD() on each and some of the functions but the results
are the same.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

Made
an error with my second observation though, instead of say 20001031 (Oct 31,
2000) I get 20001032 (Oct 32, 2000). In this case it adds 1! DOM on its
own generates 31.

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?

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

<FONT face=Arial
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 <FONT face=Arial
size=2>DayOfMonth() on its own produces
01.
