Hi Sanjeeb - as Phil states these are simple questions - I think it worries some people that you may be coding systems with little knowledge. This is not just a programming language it is a whole DBMS and application environment.
The answer to the -1 question is that it appends to the dynamic array. However care must be taken as depending on type and setup of u2 system a null value will not be appended. The conversion code d2/ means the year is in 2 digits and that the date is / delimited i.e. dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy depending on your DATE.FORMAT settings. There are a whole host of conversion codes documented in the U2 documentation. As suggested, I would recommend some form of training as well !

To be able to offer outsourcing to a company using U2 it is usually necessary for the outsourcing companies staff to be conversant in the environment. There are a couple of people on this list, most notably Ray Wurlod and Brian Leach who offer training. As do IBM. Most of these simple questions would be able to be answered in that forum and then you would be able to fully support your clients.

If we do a external conversion usng OCONV(sysdate,'D2/'),the D indicates the date conversion specification but why is the 2/ being used here...what can be the change in the conversion?
