problem with Date
Posted: Wed Aug 10, 2011 07:00 PM

Hello.

I have a date retrived from an external file as 090811 (9th august 2011).

I need to convert to Date format.

I use ctod("090811") but I got a blank date.

What is wrong?.

Thank you.

Hello

is a not valid string date format

try with

   c := "090811"
   CToD( SubStr( c,1,2 ) + "/" + SubStr( c, 3,2 ) + "/" + SubStr( c, 5,2 ) )

Thank you.

I thought it was a newer Harbour function to handle this.
