Hi Mike:
I think that the VFP Julian date usage is a "number of days from X" sort
of function, whereas your dates are the "number of days within the year"
type. You're probably gonna have to roll your own function to convert
these, but that should be really straightforward (as long as you don't mind
dealing with leap years <g>).
Good luck.
Jon

Subject: I have some data in year julian day form , how do i convert to a
date
I have inherited some data this is stored in year, julian day format...
how do I get the date back
ie year=1998, julday=58
I tried sys(10,58) and I get an empty date...
I thought of another way, just add the julday to the start of year and
this will give me the date??? or have I misunderstood this whole julian
thing?
TIA,
Mike
