seconds past midnight GMT, Jan 1, 1970. Is there a conversion code yeah .. something like: pick DATE() = INT(unixtime/86400)+732 pick TIME() = MOD(unixtime,86400) which makes: unixtime = (pick DATE() - 732) * 86400 + pick TIME() and PICK time is always local time, not GMT -- u2-users

Chuck, you need to worry about time zone when rendering the unix epoch time as it is UTC (aka GMT) based. A simple conversion of the unix epoch time to U2 date/time will be incorrect unless you are in Britain in the winter - and who'd be there then ;-) Have a look at

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stuart Boydell Have a look at http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?DateUtility . DateUtility(parseEpochTime,intTimeStamp) will return U2 Date Time based on the local machine time zone. Now that's rich. There's a lot there. Looks like maybe good
