My question is for the format of the date (YYDDD). i.e,
- YYDDD field should not be blank
- YY should be only from 00-99, not any other charecters and come first before DDD.
- DDD should be from 001-365 for normal years and 001-366 for leap years. This should come after YY
Iam looking for simpler code to accomplish this.
Thanks again,
Ganapati
You will have to split the input into fields of 2 and 3. Compare the first against the limits you have in mind. And likewise with the other field. Looking at your requirements, why dont you use the information you asked for in the other thread ? https://www.unix.com/unix-dummies-que...er-number.html

Hi Everyone,
$tmp="20090620231013";
$tmp = substr($tmp,0,8)." ".substr($tmp,8,2).":".substr($tmp,10,2).":".substr($tmp,12,2);
So my output is:
20090620 23:10:13.
I only can think substr is easy, any perl can do this just one line very simple efficient one? :eek:

px_date2string
PX_DATE2STRING(3) Library Functions Manual PX_DATE2STRING(3) NAME
PX_date2string -- Convert paradox date into formated string SYNOPSIS
#include <paradox.h> char * PX_date2string(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, long date, const char *format) DESCRIPTION
Creates a string representation of a paradox date as specified in the parameter format. The date must be either retrieved with PX_get_data_long(3) after calling PX_get_record(3) or by simply using the long value in the pxval_t struct as returned by PX_retrieve_record(3). The function uses internally the PX_timestamp2string(3) function. The format string may contain all chars as docu- mented with PX_timestamp2string(3), though only those concerning the date will produce resonable results. RETURN VALUE
Returns pointer to string on success and NULL on failure. SEE ALSO
