Hi
I am using Linux system -->
Linux xbdp5898pap 2.4.21-50.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue May 8 17:18:29 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I am using Bash Shell.
Like if I use date -d then it would take the system date and then we can print wat we want.But Instead I would like to use the User's date(20110701) and then calculate the 7 days ago date (20110624) and print as an output.
Thanks for your thoughts. Really appreciate for your time.
