Klaus,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I found the convert function shortly after I
sent the query to the list. I will post my solution for those who are
interested. Here it is...
if the startDate of me <> empty then
# figure out days since start and update it
convert the startDate of me to seconds -- startDate is a stack level
customProp loaded at some date in the past.
put it into A
convert the date to seconds -- todays date
put it into B
put B - A into tempSecs -- solution in secs
set the daysElapsed of me to tempSecs/86400 -- convert to days, this
does the calc and places the days elapsed into the custom prop.
else
end if
Later
