I would appreciate any comments on the use of internet date instead of
english date for tracking trial days of a distributed application. Bad
idea .. good idea?
The below works OK but is there a simpler way if internet date would be
used?
--use internet date instead of english date to
--count number of trial days. Take the difference between
--a start date in seconds and a current date in seconds
--divided by 86400 to get number of days.
function fInternetDate
put the internet date into hold
if "Jan" is in word 3 of hold then put 1 & "/" into initialDate
if "Feb" is in word 3 of hold then put 2 & "/" into initialDate
if "Mar" is in word 3 of hold then put 3 & "/" into initialDate
if "Apr" is in word 3 of hold then put 4 & "/" into initialDate
if "May" is in word 3 of hold then put 5 & "/" into initialDate
if "Jun" is in word 3 of hold then put 6 & "/" into initialDate
if "Jul" is in word 3 of hold then put 7 & "/" into initialDate
if "Aug" is in word 3 of hold then put 8 & "/" into initialDate
if "Sep" is in word 3 of hold then put 9 & "/" into initialDate
if "Oct" is in word 3 of hold then put 10 & "/" into initialDate
if "Nov" is in word 3 of hold then put 11 & "/" into initialDate
if "Dec" is in word 3 of hold then put 12 & "/" into initialDate
put word 2 of hold & "/" after word 1 of initialDate
put word 4 of hold after word 2 of initialDate
convert initialDate to seconds
return initialDate
end fInternetDate
Thanks
Regards ... Bob
