runmacro date prompt OK in ARuser, but fails in runmacro
I built a macro in ARuser that prompts for a date. When I run the macro in ARuser, it accepts my typing in: 04/04/2012 A runmacro execution (from a filter or in a CMD window) fails with: -p StartDate=04/03/2012 also fails with: -p StartDate=04/03/2012 also fails with: -p StartDate=04/03/2012 00:00:00 also fails with: -p StartDate=04/03/2012 00:00:00 AR versions 7.0 have accepted: -p StartDate=04/03/2012 Anyone know of a 'new' trick I'm missing? (under a bit of a time crunch here ...) THANKS, Joel ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are
Re: runmacro date prompt OK in ARuser, but fails in runmacro
Do you have an ARDATE (or is it ARDATEONLY) environment variable changing the format of a date? What happens if you use the numeric value for the date?

We have not set ARDATE or ARDATEONLY. Using the defaults. ARERR 1590 says the date format is invalid. Thanks, Joel ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are

I just tried the date value in seconds (i.e. 1334257637) and it, too failed. sigh Joel ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: Where the Answers Are
