Hi Guys,
Plzz help me out in this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a file which runs in the back ground using crontab for every monday at5 P.M. The problem is inside the file ...
This is a sample content of a file
Update the current and previous week: (Sunday to Sunday)
%let wk_curr=20070930;
%let wk_prev=20070923
Here i need to change the dates regularly i.e. every week. before the job starts running on monday..
(20070923 is a sunday and also 20070930 is a sunday)
so wen the job runs for th next time, i need the dates to be like
%let wk_curr=20071007;
%let wk_prev=20070930;
there is no problem if the dates are changing within a month but in the case of last date of the month ,its not getting updated properly..
plzzz guide me in this as it s very urgent
