Yes this will also work in D3. I don't know why I complicated matters. Looking at one of Mark's latest emails, it seems that the date he wants to convert to internal format is actually "embedded" in a string of text, so he will have to use an F or A correlative.
For example: F;1;(G5 1);(DI) Assuming that the date is stored in attribute 1 and is the 6th group separated with spaces. -----Original Message----- From: Stevenson, Charles [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 September 2005 20:01 To: [email protected] Cc: CA Software; Mark Johnson Subject: RE: [U2] Date ICONV In English I did not know that!
