whats about doing the conversion by yourself - think it's more secure than using the undocumented buildin function - sorry there is a 10% documentation but no exactly - Str2Date

something like.

int d,m,y;
str s;
date dt;

s =  ...... // holds you date string from ascii

d = Str2Int(SubStr(s,1,2));
m = Str2Int(SubStr(s,4,2));
y = Str2Int(SubStr(s,7,4));
dt = MkDate(d,m,y); // I'm not sure if the order is day month year

Betreff: [development-axapta] Date Conversion


Hi there, I am reading a file with some data which contains dates. I
would like to put these dates in a table that I've created. The field
on my table is a date field. However when reading the file and
converting the string to a date (Str2Date with the format DMY i.e.
123) it is blank. If I use the format YMD, it copies the date but
incorrectly for example the file has 01/04/2003 but when using YMD,
it copies 04/01/2000. Please help.
