Approach on Header record

All,

I currently have a requirement to fetch a Date value from a table. And then insert a Header record into a file along with that date value.
ex:
Code:
echo "HDR"" "`date +%Y%j` `date +%Y%m%d`

In the above example I used julian date and standard date using Current Date. But the requirement here is to use a Date value fetched from a database table.

Kindly help me please.

Encode::MIME::Header(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				 Encode::MIME::Header(3pm)

NAME
Encode::MIME::Header -- MIME 'B' and 'Q' header encoding SYNOPSIS
use Encode qw/encode decode/; $utf8 = decode('MIME-Header', $header); $header = encode('MIME-Header', $utf8); ABSTRACT
This module implements RFC 2047 Mime Header Encoding. There are 3 variant encoding names; "MIME-Header", "MIME-B" and "MIME-Q". The dif- ference is described below decode() encode() ---------------------------------------------- MIME-Header Both B and Q =?UTF-8?B?....?= MIME-B B only; Q croaks =?UTF-8?B?....?= MIME-Q Q only; B croaks =?UTF-8?Q?....?= DESCRIPTION
When you decode(=?encoding?X?ENCODED WORD?=), ENCODED WORD is extracted and decoded for X encoding (B for Base64, Q for Quoted-Printable). Then the decoded chunk is fed to decode(encoding). So long as encoding is supported by Encode, any source encoding is fine. When you encode, it just encodes UTF-8 string with X encoding then quoted with =?UTF-8?X?....?= . The parts that RFC 2047 forbids to encode are left as is and long lines are folded within 76 bytes per line. BUGS
It would be nice to support encoding to non-UTF8, such as =?ISO-2022-JP? and =?ISO-8859-1?= but that makes the implementation too compli- cated. These days major mail agents all support =?UTF-8? so I think it is just good enough. SEE ALSO
